  1. 01AnimalAnimal study (in vivo)Efficacy outcome

    In anestrous mares given estradiol benzoate and sulpiride, prolactin responses tended to be greater with Kp10 than with saline (P = .09).

    Summary · context
    Abstract The objective of this study was to determine if incorporation of kisspeptin 10 (Kp10) into an estradiol benzoate (EB)-sulpiride treatment would result in greater endocrine responses, and a greater number of mares ovulating within 28 days of treatment compared to EB-sulpiride alone.
    Summary · context
    On day 1, mini osmotic pumps containing saline (n = 9) or Kp10 (50 mg/hour; n = 9) were inserted subcutaneously in the neck and remained for 7 days.
