title: [Hormonal interrelations in the hypophyseal-ovarian system in heifers during prostaglandin F2-alpha-induced estrus].
abstract: Study of prostaglandin F2 alpha action, synchronizing the estrus, in experiments on heifers demonstrated that Estrumeit (made by ICI, Great Britain), rostaglandin F2 alpha drug, in a dose of 500 micrograms was an active luteolytic factor, leading to the corpus luteum regress, determined by a fall in the progesteron level in the peripheral blood. During the estrus induction there was a short-term elevation in production and excretion of testosterone, this pointing to the prostoglandins participation in the activation of the androgenic ovarian function. Prolactin hyposecretion was shown to be a necessary condition for the realization of general biological processes for the occurrence of estrus.
