Abstract
To investigate relationships between prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α) and ovarian 20α-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (20α-OH SDH), uterine PGF2α content and ovarian 20α-OH SDH activity were measured during pseudopregnancy in the rat. Quantitative cytochemical techniques were employed to assess 20α-OH SDH activity in individual compartments of the rat ovary.This publication has 17 references indexed in Scilit:
