Abstract
The studies in this manuscript are mainly concerned with the question: What determines the output of inhibin from the ovary? In an attempt to answer this question we have chosen to examine inhibin output using two approaches, (1) Quantification of the amount of inhibin secreted into the ovarian vein of the rat in vivo during various reproductive states and (2) secretion of inhibin from the granulosa cell compartment of the pig ovary in vitro.
