title: Different patterns of cyclic AMP accumulation in rat corpora lutea after LH stimulation in vitro and in vivo.
abstract: Tissue levels of cyclic AMP were measured in rat corpora lutea at various times after administration of LH in vitro and in vivo. In-vitro addition of LH produced more pronounced accumulation of cyclic AMP in very young corpora lutea (1-day-old) than in the older corpora lutea (3- and 7-day-old). When LH was administered in vivo the highest accumulation of cyclic AMP was seen in the older corpora lutea (7- and 3-day-old).
