THE ESTROGEN-PROGESTERONE INDUCTION OF MATING RESPONSES IN THE SPAYED FEMALE RAT1
Abstract
ESTROGEN and progesterone administered in the proper sequence have been found to be more effective than estrogen alone in inducing sexual receptivity in the guinea pig (i). Since this was the only species in which this action of estrogen and progesterone had been observed, it seemed desirable to ascertain if these hormones acting synergistically are not also effective in inducing heat in another species such as the rat. The rat was chosen because the occurrence of mating in 'constant estrous animals' which ordinarily do not mate, ovulate, or form corpora lutea has been reported following the injec'tion of Iuteini2;ing hormone (2, 3). The induced mating was associated with ovulation and corpus luteum formation and suggested a relationship between the appearance of the corpora lutea and mating, similar to that postulated for the guinea pig. The possibility has been investigated and data, which indi' cate that in this respect the rat is similar to the guinea pig, are given below.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
