Abstract:"Electrical stimulation (0.33 Hz, 0.2 mA) applied bilaterally to the accessory olfactory bulb (AOB) of newly mated female mice revealed that stimulation for 4 h was sufficient to produce pregnancy block providing stimulation is given for two separate 2-h periods coincident with prolactin surges. Stimulation for two 1-h periods coincident with prolactin surges or two 2-h periods between prolactin surges was without effect. These results indicate that electrical stimulation of the AOB can faithfully reproduce pheromone-induced pregnancy block and support the view that prolactin is the hormone mainly responsible for the olfactory block to pregnancy"
