It is well known that prostaglandin (PG) F2α and PGE2 are actively produced by bovine early corpus luteum (CL) at higher levels than in the CL of later stages. However, there is no in vivo information about the local secretion of PGs within bovine developing CL so far. Thus, the objective of the present study was to determine in detail the real-time changes in PGF2α and PGE2 secretion within developing CL. A microdialysis system (MDS) was surgically implanted into the newly formed CL of 6 cows on Day 3 after GnRH administration (about 1.5 days after ovulation) to induce superovulation following FSH treatment. Both PGF2α and PGE2 release were high during the first 24 h within developing CL but decreased thereafter. These profiles were well reflected in the... |
