Priming the Anestrous Gat for Reflex Discharge of Pituitary Ovulating Hormone.

Abstract
Anestrous cats were primed with estrogen and PMS for reflex induction of ovulation by vaginal stimulation. The results indicate that the nervous-pituitary-ovarian conditions of the estrous cat may be simulated by estrogen-PMS priming, and that cats in such artificial estrus may be employed as favorable material in exptl. studies on nervous control of the adenohypo-physis.
