Mechanism of mammalian ovulation
·doi:10.1016/0039-128x(89)90040-8

The sequence of events within the ovary during the process of ovulation discussed in this review is schematically represented in Fig. 1. It is obvious that LH, perhaps with some contribution from FSH, is the normal physiological trigger for…

Stimulation of Prostaglandin Accumulation in Preovulatory Rat Follicles by Adenosine 3′,5′-Monophosphate*
·doi:10.1210/endo-102-1-39

LH stimulates an increase in prostaglandins in vitro in preovulatory follicles from rats pretreated with PMS gonadotropin. The role of cAMP in this action of LH was examined by incubating preovulatory follicles with various substances and d…

The role of prostaglandins in the development of refractoriness to LH stimulation by graafian follicles
·doi:10.1016/0090-6980(76)90121-0

The possibility that prostaglandins might be responsible for the development of the pre-ovulatory refractoriness to the stimulation by LH of cyclic AMP accumulation in vitro in the Graafian follicle was examined. Isolated rabbit Graafian fo…
