Abstract
Treatment of female mice with bromocriptine on day 1 or 3 of pregnancy induced many of the females to return to estrus. The incidence of extended cycles (7-10 days) and pseudopregnancies following this return to estrus was higher than in unmated control females. These observations are consistent with the existence of a mnemonic component of the luteotrophic system in the mouse.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
