To study, the. effect of sex hormone and ATP, one of the most important high energy phosphate in the body metabolism, on the uterine weight, uterine weight/body weight,. and glycogen of the endometrium of the castrated albino rat, the authors performed following experiment.
The results obtained were as follows
1) Three .weeks after castration, estrogen 100? per day. for three days and estrogen 100?+ATP 1 mg, per day for three days were injected in mature female rat.
In estrogen +ATP group the uterine weight, uterine weight/body weight were increased significantly and the glycogen were increased in the stroma and gland of the endometriumm of the uterus than estrogen alone group.
2) Three days after castrations of. mature female rat, estrogen 10? and ATP? mg per day, were injected for three :days.
In estrogen +ATP group-,uterine weight, uterine weight/body weight, and glycogen of the endometrium were increased than estrogen alone, group.
3) In Progesterone and ATP group, there were no significant changes than progesterone alone group. And in, testosterone and ATP group there were same findings.
4) In immature female rat three ;weeks , after castration, estrogen 25? and ATP 250? per day for three days were injected. There were no significant changes in uterine weight, uterine, weight, body weight, and glycogen of the endometrium than estrogen alone group(25? per day for- three days.
