A significant increase in hypothalamic serotonin and estradiol levels was found in silver foxes during proestrus. During estrus, the plasma estradiol concentration was reduced and a significant increase in progesterone level was correlated with a decrease in the brain serotonin content. The data obtained suggest that the brain serotonin plays a mediating role in the control of ovarian hormonal activity and ovulation in silver foxes.
在银狐发情前期，发现其下丘脑血清素和雌二醇水平显著升高。在发情期，血浆雌二醇浓度降低，孕酮水平显著升高，同时大脑血清素含量下降。所获得的数据表明，大脑血清素在银狐卵巢激素活性和排卵的控制中起介导作用。
