Abstract: | Mice were grouped to induce suppression of oestrus and subjected to removal of the vomeronasal organs or treatment with CB 154 which lowers prolactin levels. Both treatments overcame the suppression of oestrus after 72 h. Oestrus suppression was induced in lesioned mice by haloperidol treatment which raises plasma prolactin, and oestrus returned some 72 h after withdrawal of haloperidol treatment. |
