Concentrations of progesterone and the 5 alpha-reduced progestins, 5 alpha-pregnane-3,20-dione and 3 alpha-hydroxy-5 alpha-pregnan-20-one, in luteal tissue and circulating blood and their relationship to luteal function in the African elephant, Loxodonta africana.
TL;DR: The results indicate that 5 alpha-reduced compounds are the predominant progestins contained within and secreted by the corpus luteum of the African elephant, both during the ovarian cycle and throughout pregnancy.
