Accompanyingthis change there is a considerable fall in blood-pressure, even in atropinisedanimals, and a diminution in volume of the kidney. Corpus luteum extractinjected into the veins causes the uterus if quiescent to begin contracting, ifalready contracting to increase its contractions and to assume an increasedtone. Little or no effect on blood-pressure or kidney volume is producedby this extract.
