Abstract: | Pyruvate, lactate and lactate dehydrogenase appeared linearly in 2 ml 0.9% NaCl recirculated through the rabbit oviduct for 4 h in vivo. In oviducts from rabbits injected 3 days previously with 100 i.u. hCG, the rate of appearance of all three constituents was considerably reduced. It is considered unlikely that the lactate dehydrogenase secreted brings about the interconversion of pyruvate and lactate in the oviduct lumen. |
