Re: What kills (and what saves) a corpus luteum?... levels of PGF2 cut off the corpus luteum's blood supply, strangling it. In pregnant non-primates, it is known that the zygote produces interferon-gamma, which interferes with the PGF2 loop by blocking the genes which code for the receptors of estradiol and oxytocin; there is also suspected ...
