TI  - Changes of plasma concentrations of steroid hormones, prostaglandin F2 
      alpha-metabolite and pregnant mare serum gonadotropin during pregnancy in 
      thoroughbred mares.
PG  - 797-801
AB  - Plasma concentrations of estrogens, gestagens, cortisol (F), 13, 14-dihydro, 
      15-keto PGF2 alpha (PGFM) and pregnant mare serum gonadotropin (PMSG) in 10 
      Thoroughbred mares were measured for a 11-month pregnancy period. Estrone (E1) 
      and estradiol-17 beta (E2) levels gradually increased as the pregnancy advanced, 
      showing a peak around Month 8 and decreased thereafter. Progesterone (P) levels 
      increased on Months 3 and 11, and 17 alpha-OH-progesterone (17 alpha-OHP) levels 
      peaked on Month 3, whereas 20 alpha-OH-progesterone (20 alpha-OHP) levels 
      increased sharply after Month 6. PGFM indicated peaks on Months 2 and 11. F and 
      PMSG levels peaked on Months 2 and 3. From factor analysis, Month, E1, E2 and 20 
      alpha-OHP were discriminated as Factor 1, increasing with the progress of 
      pregnancy, PMSG, 17 alpha-OHP and P as Factor 2, showing a relation with the 
      secondary corpus luteum, and PGFM and F as Factor 3, affecting PGFM change on 
      Month 2 by F. P also related to both Factors 1 and 3, showing an inverse relation 
      against PGFM. In conclusion E1, E2 and 20 alpha-OHP contained in Factor 1 were 
      suggested to be important especially as parameters of placental function after 
      Month 6.
