Prostaglandin F2α Induces Goat Corpus Luteum Regression via Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress and Autophagy

Corpus luteum (CL) is a transient endocrine tissue that produces progesterone for maintaining pregnancy in mammals. In addition, the regression of CL is necessary for the initiation of the estrous cycle. Extensive research has shown that the prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α) induces the regression of CL in...
