Constant light blocks diurnal but not pulsatile release of luteinizing hormone in the ovariectomized rat.
We have investigated the effects of constant light on the patterns of LH release in long-term ovariectomized rats. Some animals were implanted with a silicone elastomer capsule containing oestradiol-17 beta. Plasma samples in anaesthetized animals were taken from the external jugular vein and in con...
