This study was carried out to find out the changes on serum concentrations of estradiol-17$\beta$, progesterone in primiparous Duroc, Landrace and Yorkshire sows weaned at 7 or 21 days. Also, we compared the litter size at birth and weaning among the breeds weaned after lactation for 7 or 21 days. The estradiol-17$\beta$ concentrations among the breeds were 6.9∼8.8 pg/ml and 6.4∼8.8 pg/ml after lactation for 7 or 21 days, respectively. The progesterone concentrations ranged from 0.3 ng/ml to 1.6 ng/ml. Duroc sow showed higher progesterone concentration compared with Landrace and Yorkshire sows weaned after lactation for 7 or 21 days. Also, we found out that litter size at birth and weaning, respectively, did not show any differences between day 7 and day 21 of lactation. From the facts mentioned above, it was suggested that very early weaning systems could work with no apparent adverse effect on prolificacy.

This study was conducted to find out the changes of progesterone and estradiol-17$\beta$ levels in the serum of female Korean native goats during the reproductive stages such as the estrous cycle, pregnancy and periparturient period. Nine heads of female Korean native goats of 3 year old in average and weighing 35.7$\pm$1.4 kg were offered for the experiment. Blood samples were taken at 0, 1, 2, 5, 7, 10, 13, 15, 18 and 19 days after onset of estrus, and 1, 30, 60, 90, 120 and 149 days of pregnancy, and -5, -2, -1, 0, +1, +2 and +5 days of periparturient period where minus figures denote the days before paturition. The progesterone, estradiol-17$\beta$ in the serum samples were assayed by radioimmunoassay methods. The results of this study are summarized as follow: 1. The progesterone levels during the estrous cycles reached a peak level of 0.98$\pm$0.60ng/ml at 13 days after onset of estrus and decreased thereafter and were lower than 0.09$\pm$0.02mg/ml on the first day of estrus. 2. The estradioe17$\beta$ levels during the estrous cycles showed a peak level of 15.97$\pm$1.72pg/ml at onest of estrus, and decreased (5.41$\pm$0.51pg/ml-9.09$\pm$1.82pg/ml) during luteal phase. 3. The progesterone levels during the gestation period increased from day 1 and peaked at 90 days after mating and then decreased until 149 days. The peak level was 6.27$\pm$0.23ng/ml at 90 days. 4. The estradiol-17$\beta$ levels during the gestation period showed gradual increase, which were 9.03$\pm$0.88, 32.96$\pm$2.85, 46.03$\pm$2.42, and 54.06$\pm$1.64pg/ml on 30, 60, 90 and 120 dyas after mating respectively. 5. The progesterone levels measured from 5 days before the parturition to 5 days after showed the highest level at the shart of measurement (4.46$\pm$0.31ng/ml) and decreased gradually and bottomed out at one day post-partum and thereafter (0.24$\pm$0.02-0.45$\pm$0.06ng/ml). 6. The estradiol-17$\beta$ levels measured during the same periparturient period as progesterone showed increase to reach the peak level at 1 day before parturition and decreased rapidly thereafter (-5 dyas 69.46$\pm$3.62, -2 days 107.07$\pm$1.91, -1 days 137.83$\pm$7.54, 0 days 50.06$\pm$6.71 and +1 to +5 days 3.21-4.72 pg/ml).

비글개 6두에서 11회(임신견 7두, 비 임신견 4두)의 발정 주기 및 임신 기간 동안 질 상피 세포 검사 및 혈장 progesterone과 estradiol-$17{\beta}$ 농도를 측정하여 질 상피 세포상과 번식 호르몬의 관계를 조사하고 배란 및 교배 적기 판정을 위한 기초 자료를 제공하고자 본 실험을 실시하였다. 임신 예와 비 임신 예에 있어서 발정 전기, 발정기 및 발정 휴지기의 기간은 각각 $8.5{\pm}1.4(Mean{\pm}SD),\;10.0{\pm}1.4$ 및 $54.0{\pm}2.8$ 그리고 $7.9{\pm}2.1,\;9.5{\pm}0.7$ 및 $62.0{\pm}11.3$일이었다. 임선 예에 비해 비 임신견의 발정 휴지기가 길었으며, 발정 주기 사이의 간격은 임선 예가 $246.2{\pm}24.5$일, 비 임신 예은 $175.3{\pm}34.5$일을 나타내어 임신이 되었던 예가 임신이 되지 않았던 예보다 길었다. 발정 주기별 질 상피 세포상의 변화를 보면 발정 전기와 발정기에는 superficial cell, anuclear cell 및 적혈구가, 발정 휴지기에는 parabasal cell, small intermediate cell, large intermediate cell 및 백혈구가, 그리고 무발정기에는 parabasal cell과 small intermediate cell이 주종을 이루었다. Cornification index(CI)는 발정 주기와 발정기에 유의하게 높았다. 발정 주기 중 혈장 progesterone과 estradiol-$17{\beta}$의 농도 사이의 관계를 혈장 progesterone 농도가 최초로 4.0 ng/ml 이상으로 상승한 날을 기준(Day 0)으로 살펴보면, 혈장 progesterone 농도는 발정 출혈 개시 일에 1.0 ng/ml 이하였으나 Day -2에 2.0 ng/ml 이상으로 상승하였으며, 혈장 progesterone 농도가 최초로 4.0 ng/ml 이상으로 상승한 날은 최초 교배 허용 후 2일이었다. Day 20일 경에 임신 예 및 비임신 예 모두 40 ng/ml 이상으로 최고치를 나타내었으며 Day 35 일까지 임신 예와 비 임신 예 사이에 차이가 인정되지 않았으나 이후 임신 예가 비 임신 예에 비해 높게 유지된 기간이 걸었다. 혈장 estradiol-$17{\beta}$ 농도는 발정 출혈 개시 일에 9 pg/ml 이상을 나타냈으며 이후 급증하여 Day -2 에 26.4 pg/ml로 peak를 나타내었다. CI와 혈장 progesterone 및 estradiol-$17{\beta}$ 농도 사이의 관계를 살펴보면, 혈장 estradiol-$17{\beta}$ 농도는 최초 교배 허용 일(Day 0)에 peak를 나타냈고 혈장 progesterone 농도는 Day 2에 4.0 ng/ml 이상으로 처음 상승하였다. CI 는 혈장 estradiol-$17{\beta}$ peak 이후 l일(Day 1)에 최고치를 나타냈으며 80% 및 90% 이상으로 증가한 날은 각각 Day -1 및 Day 1이었다. CI가 80% 및 90% 이상을 지속한 기간은 각각 Day -1에서 Day 8(10 일간 ) 및 Day 1에서 Day 6(6 일간)이었다. CI가 최고치를 나타낸 후 l일 (Day 2)에 혈장 progesterone 농도가 4.0 ng/ml 이상으로 처음 증가하였다. 결과를 종합하면 본 연구에서 비글개의 배란은 혈장 estradiol-$17{\beta}$ peak 이후 3일 및 혈장 progesterone 농도가 4.0 ng/ml 이상으로 처 음 상승한 날에 일어나며, 교배 적기는 CI가 90% 이상으로 증가한 후 2일 이후와 혈장 progesterone 농도가 $2{\sim}25\;ng/ml$인 시기로 생각된다.

A total of 13 synchronized dairy cattle(Holstein) were used to determine pregnancy rates in relation to plasma progesterone, estradiol-$17{\beta}$ levels and serum chemical values on the day of last $PGF_{2{\alpha}}$ injection and day of frozen/thawed bovine embryo transfer. The pregnancy rate of recipients with 1.0~4.0ng/ml of progesterone levels at the day of last $PGF_{2{\alpha}}$ injection was higher than that of recipients with below 1.0ng/ml or above 4.0ng/ml of progesterone levels. On the day of transfer, optimal progesterone levels were between 1.0ng/ml and 4.0ng/ml coinciding with a pregnancy rate of 88.9%. Pregnancy rate decreased when progesterone levels were below 1.0ng/ml(33.3%) or above 4.0ng/ml(0%). Corpus luteum grade did not affect pregnancy rate and this result revealed that manual palpation of corpus luteum was not valid criterion of corpus luteum function. Progesterone levels as well as pregnancy rate did not significantly differ whether the corpus luteum was on the right($1.62{\pm}1.33ng/ml$; 63.5%) or left ovary($1.99{\pm}0.61ng/ml$; 85.0%). Estradiol-$17{\beta}$ levels were not significantly different between pregnant and nonpregnant recipients, but estradiol-$17{\beta}$ levels($82.2{\pm}13.5$ VS. $72.3{\pm}10.1pg/ml$) were higher at below 1.0ng/ml of progesterone, and pregnancy rates(33.3 VS. 80%) tended to be lower than above 1.0ng/ml of progesterone. Total cholesterol levels on the day of last $PGF_{2{\alpha}}$ injection and day of transfer did not affect pregnancy rate. Calcium and inorganic phoshorus levels belonged to normal range in most of the recipients. These range did not affect pregnancy rate. In reviewing above results, plasma progesterone levels(1.0~4.0ng/ml) at the time of transfer are diagnostic value for screening recipients prior to transfer of frozen/thawed bovine embryos.

We assessed effects of ovine luteinizing hormone (oLH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (oFSH) on the granulose and theca layers from the four largest follicles, $F_1-F_4$ of hens which had been hypophysectomized 12 h before expected ovulation. Ovine LH (0.4 mg), oFSH (0.4 mg) or oLH in combination with oFSH (0.4 mg each) was injected intravenously 6 h after hypophysectomy. Progesterone, testosterone and $estradiol-17{\beta}$ levels of the granulose and theca layers which were removed 6 h after hormone injection, were measured by radioimmunoassay. Progesterone contents of $F_1-F_3$ granulosa layer at 12 h after hypophysectomy were much lower than those of control hens. This reduced progesterone level was restored partially by the injection of oLH alone for $F_1$, while no follicles responded to oFSH treatment. In contrast, the injection of oLH in combination with oFSH resulted in high progesterone content of the granulose layer from all four follicles. Progesterone content of the theca layer was negligible in all treatments. Simultaneous injection of oLH and oFSH also elevated $estradiol-17{\beta}$ level accumulating in the theca layer from all follicles, of which much higher concentrations of $estradiol-17{\beta}$ were observed when comparison were made to each of their corresponding controls. No appreciable change in testosterone contents of two layers was observed in the present experiments. These results suggest that oFSH augments function of oLH to stimulate the production of progesterone in the granulose layer and $estradiol-17{\beta}$ in the theca layer.

The purpose of this study was to measure the serum content of progesterone, estradiol 17${\beta}$ and cortisol. Blood samples collected from day 20 prepartum to day 20 postpartum in 8 sows. Progesterone and estradiol-17${\beta}$ were assayed by radioimmunoassay methods and cortisol was determined by competitive protein-binding methods. Progesterone levels began to decline on day -4, reached 1.9ng/ml by day +2 and remained quite constant thereafter. Progesterone levels remained fairly constant(18.4 to 20.0 ng/ml) from 20 to 6 days before parturition. Estrdiol-17${\beta}$ increased from 205 pg/ml at day 6 prepartum to 425 pg/ml at the time of parturition. Cortisol reached a peak level of 86.5 ng/ml at day 0.
