Effect of decidual tissue on the uterine production of prostaglandins in pseudopregnant rats.
Authors:V D Castracane  A A Shaikh
Abstract:The concentration of prostaglandin F (PGF) in uterine vein plasma of non-traumatized pseudopregnant rats and pseudopregnant rats with deciduomata were not significantly different from each other at any of the times of pseudopregnancy studied (Days 7, 10 and 12). There was a significant increase in PGF levels on Day 10 in both groups of pseudopregnant animals (P less than 0-05) compared to the Day 4 values, and PGE values were significantly greater on Day 10 in the decidual tissue-bearing rats (P less than 0-01). A slight but not significant elevation in PGE concentration was observed on Days 7 and 12 in rats with deciduomata, but there was no significant difference in the control rats on Days 4, 7, 10 or 12. The results indicate that the prolongation of pseudopregnancy in rats with deciduomata is not due to a decreased production of uterine PGs and lend support to the recent suggestion of a luteotrophic effect of decidual tissue in the rat.
