Calcitonin Directly Inhibits Luteinizing Hormone-Stimulated Progesterone Production in Granulosa Cells of the Largest Follicle of Hen

Calcitonin Directly Inhibits Luteinizing Hormone-Stimulated Progesterone Production in Granulosa Cells of the Largest Follicle of Hen

The present study was performed to demonstrate the presence of receptors for avian calcitonin (cCT) in ovarian granulosa cells of the largest follicle of laying hens and to determine the effect of cCT on LH-stimulated P4 production. The cCT binding in the granulosa cells of the largest follicle was...
