Mathematical analysis of a model for the growth of the bovine corpus luteum (2013)
Journal Article

© 2013, Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg. The corpus luteum (CL) is an ovarian tissue that grows in the wound space created by follicular rupture. It produces the progesterone needed in the uterus to maintain pregnancy. Rapid growth of the CL and pr... Read More about Mathematical analysis of a model for the growth of the bovine corpus luteum.

The progesterone receptor antagonist, onapristone has differential effects on the timing and control of the luteolytic mechanism depending on timing of administration in sheep (2013)
Journal Article

Cyclic ewes were treated with control vehicle or progesterone receptor antagonist (onapristone; 100 mg i.m. twice daily) during either early (day 3–5) or late (day 12–14) luteal phase and plasma samples collected for hormone analysis and to determine...
