  • OVX female rats were primed with vehicle (OVX), or with EB (2 μg, 24 and 48 hr before killing). Multiple infusions of saline or JB-1 were given 1 hr before the first EB or vehicle injection and every 12 hr thereafter. KD values were obtained from Scatchard analysis of 3H-prazosin binding. Each value represents the mean of four independent replications.Bmax values are shown in Figure1A.
