We examined whether nitric oxide mediates estrogen-induced uterine edema in the immature rat. Immature Wistar rats (19-21 days) received estradiol-17 beta (E2) in a single sc dose of 10 micrograms/animal and 6 h later the animals were sacrificed and the changes in uterine wet and dry weights were
The severity and anatomical extent of mammary edema (edema) of 73 primigravid Holstein heifers was scored, and certain hormones in peripheral blood plasma were quantified. The objective was to obtain by least-squares analysis of covariance independent estimates of the association of each hormone and
Theophylline increases and triodothyronine decreases uterine edema induced by physiological doses of estradiol-17 beta. Both of them decrease estrogen-induced uterine eosinophilia and the number of blood eosinophils, suggesting an explanation for the results in the uterus.
A copper intrauterine device (Cu-IUD) was inserted transabdominally into the uterine cavity of eight Japanese monkeys (Macaca fuscata fuscata) for 4 to 6 months, and effects on various organ functions were examined. Results showed no significant effects on the menstrual cycle length, serum levels of
The present study was designed to investigate the dose-response of clomiphene on several estrogenic responses in the immature rat uterus and to compare it to available data on estradiol-17 beta. A dissociation was demonstrated among the different estrogenic responses induced by clomiphene. Very high
Since previous literature suggested that estrogen-treated male mice are models for human benign prostatic hypertrophy, a series of studies was designed to examine urine retention and urogenital tract changes in rodents given chronic estradiol-17 beta (E) and dihydrotestosterone (DHT) treatments. In
Twelve anestrous adult Greyhound bitches were used to study a regimen for induction of estrus. Once daily, 7 bitches were given diethylstilbestrol (DES; 5 mg, PO) until sanguineous vaginal discharge and vulvar edema were observed (designated as day 1 of proestrus) and for 2 days thereafter. If no
Estracyt is a new drug for treatment of prostatic cancer, which is a molecule combining estradiol and nornitrogen mustard by a carbamate link. Estracyt is completely dephosphorylated prior to reaching the peripheral circulation after oral administration of the drug to men. Estramustine, i. e.
