The rats brought up under continuous illumination from the neonatal day persist in the rhythmic estrous cycle for long time and do not easily reveal so-called continuous vaginal estrus. On the contrary, immature rats at about 30 days of age show the persistent estrus soon after exposure to continuous illumination as well as adult rats. The purpose of this paper was to examine the relation of the age placed under continuous illumination and the time required to reach the persistent estrus. As the results, it was found that the younger rats need proportionally the longer time to reach the persistent estrus; the rats which were transferred into continuously illuminated environment at 0 (group A), 5 (group B), 10 (group C), 15-16 (group D) and 30 (group E) days of age required a mean time of 132.1 +/- 8.4, 126.8 +/- 8.9, 89.7 +/- 6.2, 91.5 +/- 3.8 and 70.3 +/- 3.0 days after birth to reach the persistent estrus, respectively. In the present data, a significant difference was seen between group B and C. Though all rats were killed after the same length of persistently estrous periods, actual endocrine level appeared to differ among the groups; the rats required longer time to reach the persistent estrus had smaller ovaries and adrenals.
