In basal conditions, progesterone concentrations were similar in the ovarian veins of the ovary +CL (3211 +/- 526 ng/ml) and the ovary -CL (3165 +/- 554 ng/ml), but after blocking the blood flow between the ovary +CL and the uterus, the progesterone values in the vein draining the ovary -CL decreased to 1218 +/- 394 ng/ml (P less than 0.01). When [3H]progesterone was injected in the ovary +CL, the radioactivity appeared earlier and more concentrated in the vein draining the ovary -CL (30 sec, 0.53% of injected dose) than in the femoral vein (150 sec, 0.08% of injected dose). Removal of the ovary +CL was followed by a brief maintenance of peripheral progesterone within luteal-phase levels. The in-vitro progesterone production by a suspension of cells isolated from the corpus luteum was 47.5 +/- 12.8 ng/ml/2 h, whereas luteal-like cells isolated from the ovary -CL secreted 14.3 +/- 6.0 ng/ml/2 h (P less than 0.01) into the medium. We therefore suggest that the symmetrical and high secretion rate of progesterone by the ovaries of the capuchin monkey indicates a between-ovary communication system, and that the luteal-like tissue of the ovary -CL can produce relatively large amounts of progesterone.
