Conclusions

  1. 1.

    Stimulation of the AN in sexually mature rats results in an increase in the number of corpora lutea and a decrease in the number, but not the dimensions, of vesicular follicles in the ovaries.

     
  2. 2.

    Destruction of the AN in sexually mature rats results in an increase in the number of corpora lutea and a decrease in the number of vesicular follicles and in their dimensions.

     
  3. 3.

    Stimulation and destruction of the AN in infantile rats result in the appearance of corpora lutea, but have no effect on the number of vesicular follicles in the ovaries.
