title: [Pharmacologic study of adrenergic mechanisms of compensatory hypertrophy of the ovary].
abstract: Treatment of hemicastrated adult female rats with adrenoblockers, chlorpromazine and alpha-methyl-DOPA decreased the ovarian compensatory hypertrophy (OCH) and prevented the stilbestrol suppression of the OCH. Disulfiram (dophamine-beta-hydroxylase inhibitor) potentiated the stilbestrol suppression of the OCH. Small doses of L-DOPA stimulated the OCH, and high doses of L-DOPA and dilantin failed to act on the ACH, but potentiated the estrogeninduced OCH inhibition. It is suggested that the FSH secretion was mediated by the release of norepinephrine in the central adrenergic neurons and that the estrogen action inhibiting the FSH secretion was mediated through the stimulation of dophamine release.
