          Abstract

          Luteal function in the Mongolian gerbil (Meriones unguiculatus) has been examined by pituitary homografting and hypothalamic lesioning. It was found that luteal maintenance, as determined by the decidual reaction, could be achieved in gerbils bearing either hypothalamic lesions or multiple pituitary grafts. These results suggest that the luteotrophic complex of the gerbil, like that of the rat, is subject to inhibitory control by the hypothalamus.
