title: Serum hormone levels in pregnant cynomolgus monkeys.
abstract: Serum levels of estradiol (E2), progesterone (P), prolactin (Prl), monkey chorionic gonadotropin (mCG), dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS), and cortisol (C) in pregnant cynomolgus monkeys are described. mCG, E2, and Prl patterns resembled those of pregnant rhesus monkeys. P patterns differed from data from the literature. DHEAS patterns did not follow E2 patterns. C levels did not change during pregnancy.
