Evidence that Estradiol Induces the Preovulatory LH Surge in Cattle by Increasing Pituitary Sensitivity to LHRH and then Increasing LHRH Release
TL;DR: The objectives of these studies were to determine 1) the influence of estradiol on the ability of the pituitary gland to release LH in response to L HRH in vivo, and 2) whether LHRH is required to cause the preovulatory LH surge in cattle.
Journal ArticleDOI
The hypothalamo-pituitary gonadotrophic axis of suckled and nonsuckled dairy cows postpartum.
TL;DR: Reduced frequency and amplitude of episodic LH secretion in vivo and reduced capacity of pituitaries to respond to LHRH may be the cause of suckling-induced inhibition of postpartum ovulation in cattle.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of Estradiol on Basal and Luteinizing Hormone Releasing Hormone (LHRH)-Induced Release of Luteinizing Hormone (LH) from Bovine Pituitary Cells in Culture
TL;DR: It is concluded that chronic exposure of bovine pituitary cells to E2 increased basal LH release and synthesis and acute exposure to 5, 50 or 500 ng E2 /ml media increased sensi- tivity of bova- tive cells to LU RH.
Journal ArticleDOI
Estradiol induces and progesterone inhibits the preovulatory surges of luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone in heifers.
TL;DR: It is concluded that estradiol, at concentrations which simulate those found during proestrus, induces preovulatory-like LH and FSH surges in heifers and that progesterone, at concentration found during the luteal phase of the estrous cycle, inhibits Estradiol-induced gonadotropin surges.
