Popis: To study the role of the central and peripheral control mechanisms during aging of the reproductive system, and also the possibility of restoring this function through the influence of a young animal on an old one through the exchange of humoral factors and circulating cells between the two animals, the authors use a model of heterochronous parabiosis. Female mice were used in the experiments and the serum levels of progesterone and estradiol were determined by radioimmunoassay. The results of investigations of the prolactin concentration in the adenohypophysis are given.
