Chronic administration of norethisterone for 75 days caused a marked inhibition of the pineal gland activity of cycling albino rats. In addition to a decrease in the nuclear diameter, possibly the cell size also decreased. The progestin, however, failed to induce mitosis in this gland. It is suggested that prolonged administration of norethisterone exerts untoward effects on the pineal gland function in adult female albino rats.
连续75天给予炔诺酮可显著抑制性周期正常的白化大鼠松果体的活性。除了核直径减小外，细胞大小可能也减小了。然而，该孕激素未能在该腺体中诱导有丝分裂。提示长期给予炔诺酮对成年雌性白化大鼠的松果体功能产生不良影响。
