Abstract
⺠We studied the effects of orexins on the expression of their receptors in ovary. ⺠Effects on progesterone secretion were also measured. ⺠A selective presence and function of both orexinergic receptors in luteal and granulosa cells is described. ⺠The orexinergic system may have a functional role in the ovary.
