Abstract

Ovarian incorporation of ¹²⁵I-LH, but not of ¹²⁵I-FSH, is significantly decreased by melatonin injection. Thus, pineal gland not only inhibits LH secretion, but also prevents LH action at the level of the ovary.

Key words

Pineal Gland - Melatonin - Serotonin - Luteinizing Hormone - Follicle Stimulating Hormone
