[Early chemical sympathectomy and the function of the hypophyseal-gonadal system in sexually immature and adult female rats].
Early chemical desympathisation with 6-hydroxydopamine decreased the contents of the follicle-stimulating hormone in the blood serum of 1-month old rats. The steroidogenesis disturbances were more obvious in sexually immature rats in the general desympathisation. In sexually mature rats, these disturbances disappeared. Sympathetic innervation seems to play a major part in development of the reproductive system in rats.
