Effect of corticotropin-releasing factor on the release and synthesis of prolactin.

abstract：:In experiment I we studied the capacity of progesterone (P) and two nonsteroidal agents that activate lordosis, but do not bind to the progestin receptor (PR), i.e. luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) to induce sequential inhibition (SI) in ovariectomized estradiol-primed rats.
