1 In order to elucidate the effect of stress on reproductive hormones, the present study was designed to investigate the effect of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) on the plasma levels of cortisol, progesterone, oestradiol-17 beta and prostaglandin F2 alpha metabolite in ovariectomized gilts. Progesterone proopiomelanocortin Homo sapiens
2 In order to elucidate the effect of stress on reproductive hormones, the present study was designed to investigate the effect of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) on the plasma levels of cortisol, progesterone, oestradiol-17 beta and prostaglandin F2 alpha metabolite in ovariectomized gilts. Progesterone proopiomelanocortin Homo sapiens
3 The administration of ACTH was followed by a concomitant elevation of cortisol, progesterone and prostaglandin F2 alpha metabolite but not of oestradiol-17 beta. Progesterone proopiomelanocortin Homo sapiens
4 The total area under the curve for cortisol, progesterone and prostaglandin F2 alpha metabolite was significantly higher in the ACTH than in the control group. Progesterone proopiomelanocortin Homo sapiens
5 It can be concluded that the administration of ACTH to ovariectomized gilts, results in the elevation of cortisol, progesterone and prostaglandin F2 alpha metabolite but not of oestradiol-17 beta. Progesterone proopiomelanocortin Homo sapiens
