Pregnant hamsters were administered (SC) prostaglandin or vehicle on the morning of the 4th day of pregnancy. Serum progesterone was significantly depressed (p less than .01) at 0.5, 2, and 6 hours after treatment with 100 microgram PGF2alpha. Serum progesterone levels were unchanged 2 hours and 6 hours after treatment with 100 microgram PGF2beta and 2 hours after treatment with 1 mg PGF2beta. Progesterone levels were depressed to less than 1 ng/ml 6 hours after treatment with 1 mg PGF2beta. The specific uptake of 3H-PGF2alpha in whole hamster corpora lutea was significantly depressed 2 hours and 6 hours following 100 microgram PGF2alpha treatment. A 15% depression in specific uptake occurred 0.5 hour post-treatment. Treatment with 100 microgram PGF2beta resulted in no change. Administration of 1 mg PGF2beta resulted in depressed 3H-PGF2alpha uptake at both 2 and 6 hours post-treatment. Prostacyclin (PGI2) treatment resulted in no change in either 3H-PGF2alpha specific uptake or serum progesterone 2 hours after 100 microgram treatment SC. These parameters were both reduced approximately 30% 6 hours post-treatment. Treatment with 6-keto-PGF1alpha resulted in a complete lack of measurable 3H-PGF2alpha uptake and serum progesterone levels less than 1 ng/ml at both 2 and 6 hours after treatment with 1 mg SC.
