Estrogen and oxytocin receptors in the canine corpus luteum during pregnancy and parturition
The expression of genes encoding the receptors for estrogen (ERαmRNA) and oxytocin (OTRmRNA) was studied in the corpus luteum during pregnancy and parturition in dogs. Real-time PCR was performed to quantify the levels of ERαmRNA and OTRmRNA in the corpus luteum of bitches during Early (up to 20 da...
