S. KALRA, C. J. WILCOX. Relationships between maternal hormones weight of newborn sheep. Am. J. Physiol. 244 (Regulatory Integrative Comp. Physiol. 13): R31-R35,1983.-Intact ovariectomized mixed-breed sheep were studied in chronic experiments during the last weeks of pregnancy. Measurements were made of the rate of uterine blood flow (ml/min mlmin-â kg-â, combined weight of fetus, uterus, placenta) of arterial uterine venous concentrations of progestagens, estrone, estradiol. The birth weight of the lamb was directly related to mean maternal concentrations of estrone estradiol to the rate of progestagen release by the uterus its contents (ng *ml-â kg-â), calculated by taking the product of the rate of blood flow the arteriovenous progestagen difference. Ovariectomy altered the relationship between birth weight progestagen release. Data suggest that rates of progestagen reiease both by the fetoplacental unit by the ovary are proportional to the birth weight of the lamb. l l birth weight; estrone; estradiol; blood flow progestagen production; uterine OF SHEEP during the last
