Progesterone is a mediator in the ovulatory process of the in vitro-perfused rat ovary

The role of steroids in the ovulatory process of the rat was explored in an in vitro perfusion system. Immature rat ovaries were primed with pregnant mare's serum gonadotropin (20 IU) and perfused in a recirculating perfusion system for up to 20 h. Unstimulated ovaries did not ovulate whereas the addition of luteinizing hormone (LH; 0.1 micrograms/ml) plus 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (IBMX; 0.2 mM) resulted in 13.6 +/- 1.0 ovulations per treated ovary. Addition of an inhibitor of 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (Compound A; 10 micrograms/ml) significantly (p less than 0.01) decreased the number of ovulations after LH plus IBMX stimulation (1.6 +/- 0.8 ovulations per treated ovary). This inhibition was reversed by the addition of progesterone, with 6.6 +/- 2.1 ovulations at approximately 100 ng/ml progesterone in the perfusion medium and 15.2 +/- 3.4 ovulations at approximately 3000 ng/ml progesterone. The addition of testosterone (10 micrograms/ml) did not reverse the inhibition of ovulations by Compound A. High levels of progesterone in the perfusion medium (greater than 3000 ng/ml) did not significantly (p greater than 0.05) increase the number of ovulations after stimulation with LH plus IBMX (20.2 +/- 4.8 ovulations), and progesterone (greater than 3000 ng/ml) was not by itself able to induce ovulations. Addition of LH plus IBMX resulted in a marked increase in the levels of progesterone, testosterone, and estradiol in the perfusion medium. The production of these steroids was almost completely inhibited by the addition of Compound A, and the levels of testosterone and estradiol were restored by the addition of high concentrations of progesterone.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)     

Development of steroidogenic activity in the ovary of the prepubertal hamster: II. Production of steroids from steroidal precursors and response in vitro to cyclic adenosine monophosphate and luteinizing hormone

In vitro exposure for 2 h to 250 ng/ml of pregnenolone led to increased production of progesterone and 17 alpha-hydroxyprogesterone (17 alpha-OHP) by hamster ovaries on Days 5, 10 and 15 of age. Similar incubations with 250 ng/ml progesterone or androstenedione caused significant increases in 17 alpha-OHP or testosterone, respectively. When testosterone was added in doses of 32.5, 250 and 500 ng/ml to ovaries on Days 5-30, as early as Day 5 the ovaries aromatized the androgen to estradiol. Day 30 ovaries were the most efficient in the conversion because antral follicles, the principal site for aromatization, were then present. In terms of progesterone production, 400 ng/ml of luteinizing hormone (LH) during 4 h of in vitro incubation stimulated ovaries on Days 5, 10 and 15. Cyclic adenosine 3':5' monophosphate (cAMP) at a dose of 1 mM and 5 mM stimulated progesterone production by Days 5 and 10 ovaries more efficiently than LH. However, Day 15 ovaries produced more progesterone in response to LH compared to cAMP. These experiments establish that the steroidogenic enzymes differentiate at a very early age in the hamster ovary, even before the appearance of gonadotropin receptors. The inability of the early postnatal ovary to produce steroids is apparently attributable to lack of precursors such as cholesterol or cholesterol side chain cleavage enzymes.     

Prostaglandin levels in preovulatory follicles from rabbit ovaries perfused in vitro

Prostaglandin (PG) levels in follicular fluid from preovulatory follicles of rabbit ovaries perfused in vitro were measured in order to compare PG changes in this model system with those that occur in vivo and in isolated, LH-treated follicles in vitro. One ovary from each rabbit was perfused without further treatment (control). The other ovary was exposed to LH (0.1 or 1 microgram/ml) beginning 1 hour (h) after initiation of perfusion. Samples of perfusion medium were taken at frequent intervals for measurement of PGE, PGF, progesterone and estradiol 17 beta. The perfusions were terminated when the first ovulation occurred or appeared imminent as judged by changes in the size and shape of the follicles. Follicular fluid was then rapidly aspirated from all large follicles on both ovaries for PGE and PGF measurement. Ovulations occurred only in the LH-treated ovaries. Progesterone and estradiol levels were significantly elevated in the perfusion medium within 1 h of LH treatment in comparison to controls. PG levels in perfusion medium from the control and LH-treated ovaries were not different throughout perfusion and increased in both groups. In contrast, PG levels measured in follicular fluid from LH-treated ovaries were 4- to 5-fold greater than in fluid from control ovaries. It is concluded that ovulation induced by LH in this experimental model is accompanied by an increase in follicular PG levels similar to that seen in other in vivo and in vitro models. This difference in follicular PG levels between the LH-treated and control ovaries is, however, not reflected in the perfusion medium.     

Prostaglandin levels in preovulatory follicles from rabbit ovaries perfused

Prostaglandin (PG) levels in follicular fluid from preovulatory follicles of rabbit ovaries perfused were measured in order to compare PG changes in this model system with those that occur and in isolated, LH-treated follicles . One ovary from each rabbit was perfused without further treatment (control). The other ovary was exposed to LH (0.1 or 1 ug/ml) beginning 1 hour (h) after initiation of perfusion. Samples of perfusion medium were taken at frequent intervals for measurement of PGE, PGF, progesterone and estradiol 17β. The perfusions were terminated when the first ovulation occurred or appeared imminent as judged by changes in the size and shape of the follicles. Follicular fluid was then rapidly aspirated from all large follicles on both ovaries for PGE and PGF measurement.Ovulations occurred only in the LH-treated ovaries. Progesterone and estradiol levels were significantly elevated in the perfusion medium within 1 h of LH treatment in comparison to controls. PG levels in perfusion medium from the control and LH-treated ovaries were not different throughout perfusion and increased in both groups. In contrast, PG levels measured in follicular fluid from LH-treated ovaries were 4- to 5-fold greater than in fluid from control ovaries. It is concluded that ovulation induced by LH in this experimental model is accompanied by an increase in follicular PG levels similar to that seen in other and models. This difference in follicular PG levels between the LH-treated and control ovaries is, however, not reflected in the perfusion medium.     

FSH and growth factors affect the growth and endocrine function in vitro of granulosa cells of bovine preantral follicles

The hypothesis was tested that bovine preantral follicles can be stimulated to grow in vitro by FSH and by the mitogens, epidermal growth factor (EGF) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), but not by transforming growth factor-beta (TGFbeta), which generally inhibits EGF and bFGF action. Preantral follicles, 60 to 179 mum in diameter, were isolated from fetal ovaries by treatment with collagenase and DNase and cultured for 6 d in serum-free medium, with or without FSH and growth factors. Basic FGF (50 ng/ml), and to a lesser extent FSH (100 ng/ml) and EGF (50 ng/ml), stimulated thymidine incorporation by granulosa cells in bovine preantral follicles compared to control cultures (8-, 4- and 2.5-fold the labeling index of the controls; P < 0.05). Alone TGFbeta (10 ng/ml) had no effect on (3)H-thymidine incorporation, but it completely inhibited the bFGF- but not the FSH-stimulated increase in the labeling index and mean follicular diameter of preantral follicles (P < 0.05). By the end of the culture period oocytes in most treatments had degenerated, and the few surviving oocytes were in preantral follicles cultured with FSH or bFGF. Progesterone accumulation was greater (P < 0.05) in the presence of FSH (100 ng/ml) or EGF (50 ng/ml) than with bFGF, TGFbeta or control medium. Basic FGF strongly inhibited the effect of FSH on progesterone secretion (P < 0.05). Only FSH stimulated the conversion of exogenous testosterone to estradiol and both bFGF and TGFbeta markedly inhibited FSH-stimulated estradiol accumulation. These results indicate that proliferation of granulosa cells of bovine preantral follicles can be stimulated by bFGF, FSH and EGF, whereas TGFbeta inhibits growth, and that they are steroidogenically active in culture. Basic FGF and TGFbeta antagonize FSH-stimulated steroid production by granulosa cells of cultured bovine preantral follicles.     

The effect of ovarian steroidogenesis on ovulation and fertilizability in the in vitro perfused rabbit ovary

The effects of aminoglutethimide phosphate (AGP) on ovulation, ovum maturation, fertilizability, and steroid production were studied with the use of an isolated perfused rabbit ovary preparation. AGP (10(-3) or 10(-4) M) was added to the perfusate of one ovary. The contralateral control ovary was perfused in medium alone. Thirty minutes later human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) (50 IU) was added to the perfusate of all ovaries. No difference was observed in time of ovulation or ovulatory efficiency between controls and AGP-treated ovaries. The degree of ovum maturity and degeneration was also comparable in the two groups. Progesterone and estradiol production were significantly reduced by AGP treatment. A second experiment examined fertilizability of ova ovulated in vitro after perfusion with 10(-3) M AGP. AGP significantly reduced the rate of normal fertilization as observed 12 h after insemination. The percentage of inseminated ova with evidence of degeneration was greater in ova from AGP-treated ovaries than in those from controls, however, this difference was not significant. The study indicates that AGP affects neither hCG-induced ovulation nor meiotic resumption; however, fertilizability of ova from ovaries treated with AGP is impaired. These data suggest that the intrafollicular steroid environment may participate in cytoplasmic maturation of ovulated ova.     

Effects of prolactin on ovarian plasmin generation in the process of ovulation.

The present study was undertaken to assess the effects of prolactin (PRL) on gonadotropin-induced plasmin generation in the in vitro-perfused rabbit ovary. The ovarian plasmin activity was determined by measuring plasmin bound to its major inhibitor, alpha 2-plasmin inhibitor (alpha 2 PI-Plm). In the first experiment, exposure to hCG enhanced ovarian alpha 2 PI-Plm generation from 1.2 +/- 0.3 ng/min/ovary in unstimulated ovaries to 2.9 +/- 0.3 ng within 2 h. The concentration of alpha 2 PI-Plm reached a maximum at 4 h and then declined. A second peak occurred 8 h after hCG administration; however, the ovarian alpha 2 PI-Plm generation without hCG was very low throughout the entire perfusion period. In the subsequent experiment, the addition of PRL(10-10(3) ng/ml) to the perfusate inhibited hCG-induced ovulation in a dose-dependent manner. Exposure to PRL at 10(3) ng/ml significantly (p less than 0.05) inhibited hCG-induced alpha 2 PI-Plm generation in ovaries throughout the entire perfusion period. Furthermore, PRL inhibited hCG-stimulated alpha 2 PI-Plm generation at 4 h after hCG administration in the perfused rabbit ovaries in a dose-dependent manner. In conclusion, PRL directly inhibits hCG-induced ovulation in rabbit ovary, at least in part, by a mechanism depending upon inhibition of the plasmin-generating system in the preovulatory follicles.     

Inhibin a increases apoptosis in early ovarian antral follicles of diethylstilbestrol-treated rats

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the role of inhibin A in follicular development and apoptosis-related mechanisms in preantral and early antral follicles from prepubertal diethylstilbestrol (DES)-treated rats. Granulosa cells isolated from the ovaries of 23- to 25-day-old rats were cultured in serum-free medium containing FSH (20 ng/ml), transforming growth factor beta (5 ng/ml), and estradiol (50 ng/ml) in the presence or absence of different concentrations of recombinant human inhibin A. (3)H-Thymidine incorporation was decreased in the presence of Inh, but no significant changes were observed in progesterone and estradiol levels in culture medium. An increase in low molecular weight DNA fragmentation indicative of apoptosis and an increase in the levels of Bax protein with no changes in Bcl-2 protein levels were evident in early antral follicles incubated for 24 h with Inh. For each animal, Inh (0.5 micro g/ovary) was injected intrabursally in one ovary, and the contralateral ovary served as a control. Ovarian histology revealed an inhibitory effect of Inh treatment on the follicular development induced by DES. At 24 h after Inh injection, the number of preantral follicles was increased compared with controls, whereas the number of early antral follicles was decreased. In addition, in vivo Inh treatment caused an increase in the percentage of apoptotic cells in preantral and early antral follicles. These results suggest that inhibin produced by the dominant follicle may act as a paracrine factor inhibiting the growth of neighboring follicles, thus participating in the mechanism of follicular selection.     

Prostaglandin levels in preovulatory follicles from rabbit ovaries perfused invitro

Prostaglandin (PG) levels in follicular fluid from preovulatory follicles of rabbit ovaries perfused $\text{in}$$\text{vitro}$ were measured in order to compare PG changes in this model system with those that occur $\text{in}$$\text{vivo}$ and in isolated, LH-treated follicles $\text{in}$$\text{barvitro}$. One ovary from each rabbit was perfused without further treatment (control). The other ovary was exposed to LH (0.1 or 1 ug/ml) beginning 1 hour (h) after initiation of perfusion. Samples of perfusion medium were taken at frequent intervals for measurement of PGE, PGF, progesterone and estradiol 17β. The perfusions were terminated when the first ovulation occurred or appeared imminent as judged by changes in the size and shape of the follicles. Follicular fluid was then rapidly aspirated from all large follicles on both ovaries for PGE and PGF measurement.Ovulations occurred only in the LH-treated ovaries. Progesterone and estradiol levels were significantly elevated in the perfusion medium within 1 h of LH treatment in comparison to controls. PG levels in perfusion medium from the control and LH-treated ovaries were not different throughout perfusion and increased in both groups. In contrast, PG levels measured in follicular fluid from LH-treated ovaries were 4- to 5-fold greater than in fluid from control ovaries. It is concluded that ovulation induced by LH in this experimental model is accompanied by an increase in follicular PG levels similar to that seen in other $\text{in}$$\text{vivo}$ and $\text{in}$$\text{vitro}$ models. This difference in follicular PG levels between the LH-treated and control ovaries is, however, not reflected in the perfusion medium.     

Ovulations in rat ovaries perfused in vitro with follicle-stimulating hormone

Using the model of the isolated perfused rat ovary, we have found that highly purified ovine follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) preparations cause ovulation and that this effect is not due to luteinizing hormone (LH) contamination. Ovine FSH-13 at a concentration of 1.5 mU/ml induced ovulations in all perfused ovaries (8.8 +/- 2.3 ovulations/ovary), as did a more purified preparation, ovine FSH-211B, at concentrations of 0.5 mU/ml (15.0 +/- 6.4 ovulations/ovary) and 5 mU/ml (11.3 +/- 2.6 ovulations/ovary). This ovulation-inducing effect of FSH is accompanied by a marked stimulation of estradiol levels in the perfusion medium without stimulation of progesterone levels. Furthermore, a purified rat FSH preparation (15 mU/ml) also induced ovulation in all ovaries (13.8 +/- 2.2 ovulations/ovary) as well as a stimulation of both estradiol and progesterone in the medium. These data clearly confirm the direct ovulatory effect of FSH on the ovary.
