Heterogeneous cell types in the corpus luteum of sheep, goats and cattle.
Journal of reproduction and fertility. Supplement, 2019 Data on the structure, quantitation, origins and functions of the large luteal (LL) and small luteal (SL) cells of sheep, goats and cattle are reviewed. Both LL and SL cells show ultrastructural features consistent with a steroidogenic function. However,

Differential actions of second messenger systems in the corpus luteum.
Journal of reproduction and fertility. Supplement, 2019 Our current working hypothesis for the intracellular mechanism of action for LH and PGF-2 alpha is shown in Fig. 8. Luteinizing hormone appears to act primarily on the small luteal cell through the cAMP/protein kinase A effector system and thereby ...
