Immunogold labelling of the cytoplasmic estradiol receptor in resting porcine endometrium 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Summary Serial sections of resting porcine endometrium were analyzed with the monoclonal antibody 13H2 using goat antimouse IgG/5 nm gold as secondary reagent or with either polyclonal antibodies from goat #402 or the rat monoclonal antibody H222, both in combination with protein G/12 nm gold. A modestly higher labelling of nuclei than of cytoplasm was seen only with the monoclonal antibody H222. Polyclonal #402 and monoclonal 13H2 showed fewer attachments over nuclear than over cytoplasmic areas. The highest densities of attachment and of predominantly cytoplasmic labelling were obtained with the monoclonal antibody 13H2. The results confirm the earlier assumption of a restricted accessiblity of estradiol receptor in the cytoplasm of resting cells for immunoreagents. 相似文献

Summary Although the regulatory activity of steroid hormones on amino acid metabolism has been described, no information is published on the effect of ovariectomy. We studied the influence of ovariectomy in Wistar rats determining the amino acids phenylalanine and tyrosine in liver, kidney, plasma and urine. 32 animals were used in the study, 12 animals were sham operated, 9 animals were ovariectomized and 11 rats were ovariectomized and supplemented with estradiol. No quantitative changes were detected comparing liver and kidney phenylalanine and tyrosine between the groups (sham operated rats liver phenylalanine 2,53nM/mg ± 1,07; liver tyrosine 1.95nM/mg ± 0.92; kidney phenylalanine 2.16nM/mg ± 0.53; kidney tyrosine 1.80nM/mg ± 0.39. Ovariectomized rats showed liver phenylalanine 3.07nM/mg ± 1.14; liver tyrosine 2.63nM/mg ± 1.01; kidney phenylalanine 2.30 nM/mg ± 0.74; kidney tyrosine 1.93nM/mg ± 0.63. Ovariectomized and estradiol supplemented rats presented with liver phenylalanine 2.84nM/mg ± 1.40; liver tyrosine 2.35nM/mg ± 1.28; kidney phenylalanine 1.91nM/mg ± 0.26, kidney tyrosine 1.67nM/mg ± 0.23.). When, however, the phenylalanine/tyrosine ratio in the liver was evaluated, ovariectomized rats showed a significant decrease of the quotient (p = 0.001). The phenylalanine/tyrosine ratio was restored by estradiol replacement. Our findings show that phenylalanine and tyrosine metabolism is under estradiol control. The effect on the metabolic changes could be mediated by enzyme systems as phenylalanine hydroxylase, tyrosine hydroxylase and tyrosine aminotransferase. Our results would be compatible with previous reports on the stimulatory effect of estradiol on these enzymes. The kidney phenylalanine/tyrosine ratio was unaffected by ovariectomy and/or estradiol replacement which can be easily explained by different pools, enzyme activities, filtration/reabsorption effects, etc.The urinary P/T ratio was decreased by ovariectomy and restored by estradiol replacement indicating endocrine control of renal reabsorption and secretion mechanisms. 相似文献

Summary As steroid hormones are known to influence amino acid metabolism we tested the hypothesis that ovariectomy should lead to significant changes in this system.We found that after ovariectomy serum alanine was significantly decreased (p = 0.0006) in contrast to serum glycine and branched chain amino acids (BCAA). The ratio of glycine/BCAA, a parameter for anabolism or catabolism was not changed after ovariectomy. If, however, the amino acid alanine as the link to carbohydrate and lipid metabolism was introduced the alanine/BCAA ratio was significantly altered (p = 0.01).Although serum cholesterol was altered as well (increased,p = 0.03), no significant correlation with alanine was found. We can therefore assume that there are two independent mechanisms for lipid and amino acid changes after ovariectomy.The most prominent finding was that estradiol replacement after ovariectomy restored increased cholesterol levels but did not restore alanine levels. Other ovarial hormones must be incriminated for the regulation of alanine metabolism. The anabolic effects of estradiol as decreasing glycine and BCAA were noticed which rules out insufficient estradiol replacement. 相似文献

Morphometric studies were made on corpora allata of the cockroach Diploptera punctata from animals in which increasing gland size is not coupled to hormone synthesis (ovariectomized mated females; last-instar larvae) and in which gland size is coupled to hormone synthesis (normal mated and virgin females; penultimate-instar larvae). Cell number, gland volume, and juvenile hormone synthesis were measured. From electron micrographs, nuclear, cytoplasmic, and extracellular volumes; and cell membrane area were calculated; and fine structure described. Low-activity glands of ovariectomized mated females resembled high-activity glands from mated females in high cell number, large overall and cytoplasmic volume, and low nuclear-cytoplasmic ratio; they differed in having organelles typical of low-activity glands, mitochondria with dense matrices and large whorls of smooth endoplasmic reticulum. Inactive lastinstar larval glands resembled mated ovariectomized, female glands in increased cell number and organelles characteristic of inactive glands; however, their nuclearcytoplasmic volume ratio was much higher. Penultimate cytoplasmic volume ratio was much higher. Penultimate larval glands with high activity per cell resembled active glands of normal mated females. Ovariectomy did not change morphometric parameters of virgin female glands; thus mating results in increase in size of adult female glands whereas the growing ovary is needed for changes in mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum associated with high juvenile hormone synthesis. 相似文献

The effects of ovariectomy on broody behavior and plasma prolactin levels were examined in turkey hens that had previous histories of broodiness. Ovariectomy eliminated all nesting behavior and blocked the photostimulated increase in plasma prolactin observed in sham-operated hens. Sham-operated hens demonstrated egg-laying patterns and nesting behavior typical of broody hens. A large increase in plasma prolactin preceded broody behavior which continued as long as the elevated amounts of plasma prolactin persisted. It was concluded that the ovary is essential in expressing broody nesting behavior, the large increase in plasma prolactin associated with this behavior, and the prolactin increase in hens that did not demonstrate nesting behavior. 相似文献

The ovariectomized old cynomolgus monkey is a recognized model of human osteoporosis, and the same species can be used for the assessment of the efficacy and potential toxicity of agents intended to prevent or treat osteoporosis. Several assays have been developed that can measure the same biochemical markers of bone turnover as are used in human patients for the diagnosis and treatment follow-up of bone-related diseases, including osteoporosis. The aim of the present study was to describe the results obtained with these assays in normal control monkeys, their variations with age and sex, and their sensitivity in monitoring the bone turnover induced by ovariectomy in old skeletally mature cynomolgus monkeys. Seven old cynomolgus monkeys were bilaterally ovariectomized and 13 age-matched monkeys were sham-operated. Bone mineral density and biochemical markers were measured before and at regular intervals after surgery for up to 20 months. Total alkaline phosphatase (total ALP), bone-specific alkaline phosphatase isoenzyme (bone ALP) and osteocalcin (OC) were highly correlated to the decrease in bone mineral density (BMD) induced by ovariectomy. Deoxypyridinoline (DPD) measured by enzyme-linked immunoassay was insensitive to the bone resorption induced by ovariectomy, but cross-linked N-telopeptide (NTX-I) was higher in ovariectomized monkeys than in control monkeys. These results demonstrate that reliable biochemical parameters are available to adequately monitor and provide insight into osteoclastic bone resorption and osteoblastic bone formation, the two components of bone turnover in this animal model, and can thus be used to assess the efficacy and toxicity of potential therapeutic agents. 相似文献

Hyperosmolality is a potent stimulus for the secretion of oxytocin. Oxytocinergic neurons are modulated by estrogen and oxytocin secretion in rats varies according to the phase of the estrous cycle, with higher activity during proestrus. We investigated the oxytocin secretion induced by an osmotic stimulus (0.5 M NaCl) in female rats. Plasma oxytocin and the oxytocin contents in the neurohypophysis and the paraventricular and supraoptic nuclei were determined during the morning (8-9 h) and afternoon (17-18 h) of the estrous cycle and after ovariectomy followed or not by hormone replacement. Plasma oxytocin peaked in control animals during proestrus. Oxytocin content decreased in the paraventricular and supraoptic nuclei during proestrus and estrus compared to diestrus and increased in the neurohypophysis during proestrus morning. No significant difference was observed in the oxytocin content of the neurohypophysis, nuclei or plasma between ovariectomized animals and ovariectomized animals treated with estrogen or estrogen plus progesterone. Therefore, any ovarian factor other than estrogen or progesterone seems to play a direct or indirect role in the increase in oxytocin secretion. The osmotic stimulus caused an increase in plasma oxytocin throughout the estrous cycle. A reduction in oxytocin content during diestrus and an increase during proestrus were observed in the paraventricular nuclei. In ovariectomized animals, the treatment with estrogen potentiated the response of oxytocin to the osmotic stimulus, with the response being even stronger in the case of estrogen plus progesterone. In conclusion, the ovarian steroids estrogen plus progesterone could modulate the osmoreceptor mechanisms related to oxytocin secretion. 相似文献

The goal of the present study is to investigate the role of tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) in the vascular response in ovariectomized rats. Rats were randomly assigned to two groups: (1) sham group: sham-operated female rats, and (2) Ovx group: rats were ovariectomized. Our results have shown that the plasma 17 beta-estradiol levels in the Ovx group at the end of the experiment were significantly lower than in the sham group. Vasoreactivity assessed with intact aortic rings indicated that the phenylephrine-induced vasocontractile response to aortic rings from the Ovx group was greater than that of the sham group. In contrast, the vasodilator responses to acetylcholine and L-arginine (L-Arg) in the sham group were significantly greater than in the Ovx group. Differences in vasoreactivity in denuded aorta between the two groups were not noted. Moreover, exogenous BH4 significantly restored L-Arg-induced vasodilator responses in the Ovx group. However, this improvement effect was not found in the sham group. In addition, there were significant increases in superoxide anion production in aortic tissue and significant decreases in plasma nitric oxide levels in the Ovx group. Furthermore, BH4 contents in the aorta in the Ovx group were significantly decreased compared with the sham group. In conclusion, the present study demonstrates that the impairment of vascular reactivity was found in the ovariectomized rats. The possible mechanism of this defect may have resulted from the deficiency of available BH4. Thus, this study may provide a novel therapeutic strategy for the treatment of postmenopausal cardiovascular disorders. 相似文献
