Ovarian Dysfunction in Streptozotocin-lnduced Diabetic Rats
The effect of streptozotocin diabetes on some ovarian functions in adult rats was examined. Diabetic diestrus animals showed reduced ovary weight and lower circulating levels of progesterone. Scatchard plots of binding data derived from ovarian paniculate fractions of normal and streptozotocin diabe...
