Effects of subcutaneous progesterone injection as a short-time estrus synchronization protocol in ewes: a preliminary study [PDF]
The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of short-time progesterone injection subcutaneously (SC) on estrus synchronization of Baluchi ewes. All ewes received one dose of PGF2α (15 mg) and then were divided into two groups.

Immunolocalization of steroidogenic enzymes in the vaginal mucous of Galea spixii during the estrous cycle. [PDF]
BackgroundThe synthesis of sex steroids is controlled by several enzymes such as17α-hydroxylase cytochrome P450 (P450c17) catalyzing androgen synthesis and aromatase cytochrome P450 (P450arom) catalyzing estrogen synthesis, both of which must complex ...

Estrus-Cycle Regulation of Cortical Inhibition [PDF]
SummaryFemale mammals experience cyclical changes in sexual receptivity known as the estrus-cycle. Little is known about how estrus affects the cortex although alterations in sensation, cognition and the cyclic occurrence of epilepsy suggest brain-wide processing changes.
