[Effect of destruction and stimulation of the amygdaloid nuclei on the sensitivity of the ovaries and uterus of infantile rats to hydrocortisone and desoxycorticosterone].
The effect of destruction and stimulation of the amygdaloid nuclei on the sensitivity of the ovaries and uterus to hydrocortisone and deoxycorticosterone was studied in 190 infantile female albino rats. Administration of the hormones following the action upon the amygdaloid nuclei led to a sharp reduction of the weight of the ovaries and uterus, an increase in the count of compact and vesicular follicles with reduction of their size. Adrenalectomy with the following destruction and stimulation of the amygdaloid nuclei and the hormone administration led to an even greater reduction in weight of the ovaries; as to the count and size of compact and vesicular follicles--it decreased, and the uterus gained weight.
