Progesterone enhances the output of prostaglandin F2-alpha by uterine horns isolated from adult ovariectomized and immature rats

The output of prostaglandin (PG) F and PGE-like material into the solution bathing uterine horns isolated from adult ovariectomized and immature rats under the influence of progesterone, was studied. The injection of progesterone (0.5; 1.0; 2.0 or 4.0 mg) hours prior to sacrifice enhanced significan...
