Effect of corticosterone, hydrocortisone and prostaglandin fatty acid precursors on the spontaneous motility of the uterus isolated from ovariectomized rats

·doi:10.1016/0090-6980(82)90027-2

The effect of corticosterone (CC, 0.4 and 1 microgram/ml) and of hydrocortisone (HC, 20 and 40 micrograms/ml) on the spontaneous motility and on prostaglandin (PG) generation in the uterus from ovariectomized rats, was studied. Both concent…

Melatonin blocks in vitro generation of prostaglandin by the uterus and hypothalamus

·doi:10.1016/0014-2999(80)90098-9

The effects of melatonin on the motility (isometric tension developed and contractile frequency) of uterine horns isolated from ovariectomized rats as well as on the mechanical responsiveness to added oxytocin or prostaglandin F2 alpha (PGF…

Is the spontaneous motility of isolated rat uterus controlled by prostaglandin E?

·doi:10.1016/s0090-6980(79)80040-4

Variations in the spontaneous contractile activity during 6 hours following isolation of uterine horns from proestrus, metestrus and spayed rats, were explored. In estrus and metestrus preparations the contractions declined during 60 min an…
