Decidual tissue in pseudopregnant hamsters prolonged ovarian progesterone release by one full day. The terminal decline in circulating progesterone occurred abruptly overnight in experimental and control animals and was synchronous with termination of hyperemia. During the hours immediately preceding luteal regression the mean progesterone level was significantly higher in hamsters with decidual tissue.
假孕仓鼠的蜕膜组织使卵巢孕酮释放延长了一整天。实验动物和对照动物循环孕酮的最终下降在一夜之间突然发生,且与充血的终止同步。在黄体退化前的数小时内,有蜕膜组织的仓鼠的平均孕酮水平显著更高。
