Antagonism of estrogen-induced lordosis by corticosterone in adrenalectomized-ovariectomized female rats and mice
Abstract
Previous experimentation has established that adrenalectomy can facilitate lordosis in ovariectomized estrogen-primed female rats. Experiment 1 examined the role of adrenal steroids in this effect, the results indicating an attenuation with chronic corticosterone but not with desoxycorticosterone or progesterone administration. Experiment 2 established a dose-response curve for this corticosterone effect. Experiments 3 and 4 indicated that …
