Intrafollicular factors play an important role in folliculogenesis. The follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH)-binding inhibitor (FSHBI), purified by our laboratory from human ovarian follicular fluid, has been shown to suppress ovulation and induce follicular atresia/apoptosis in mice as well as impair fertility in marmosets, the New World monkeys. The octapeptide, a peptide corresponding to the N-terminal region of human FSHBI (hFSHBI), has been synthesized and also shows FSHBI activity in vitro. In the present study, we have attempted to identify the mechanism of action of the peptide in granulosa cell cultures. Rat granulosa cell cultures were treated with varying concentrations of the octapeptide or partially purified hFSHBI (gel chromatography fraction hGF 2) in the presence or absence of human FSH (hFSH) and the amount of progesterone (P;4) secreted in the culture supernatants after 3 h/48 h was estimated. Both hGF2 and the octapeptide failed to alter basal levels as well as 8-bromo cAMP-induced P;4 production, while FSH-induced P 4 secretion was inhibited in a dose-dependent manner. These studies reveal that the octapeptide, a fragment of FSHBI, and the native protein have similar activity in vitro and both compounds alter FSH action at the receptor level upstream of cAMP formation. 相似文献

The expression of X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein (XIAP), a member of a family of intracellular antiapoptotic proteins, is induced by FSH during follicular development in vivo. Whether the XIAP up-regulation by FSH (100 ng/ml) is a direct action of the gonadotropin and is important in the control of granulosa cell proliferation during follicular growth is unclear. The overall objective of the present study was to examine whether the FSH-induced XIAP expression and granulosa cell proliferation during follicular development is mediated by the secretion and action of intraovarian transforming growth factor alpha (TGFalpha). In rat follicles cultured for 2 and 4 days, FSH stimulated estradiol production, TGFalpha secretion, XIAP expression, and follicular growth. The theca cells are the primary follicular source of FSH-induced TGFalpha, as indicated by in situ hybridization. Intrafollicular injection of a neutralizing anti-TGFalpha antibody (50-200 ng/ml; immunoglobulin G as control) or addition of estradiol-antagonist ICI 182780 (0.5-100 nM) to the culture media suppressed FSH-induced XIAP expression and follicular growth. The effect of ICI 182780 could be partially reversed by high concentrations of estrogen (250 and 500 nM). Whereas TGFalpha (10-20 ng/ml) significantly increased granulosa cell XIAP content and proliferation in primary granulosa cell cultures, FSH alone was ineffective in eliciting the mitogenic response. Our results support the hypothesis that FSH stimulates granulosa cell proliferation via theca TGFalpha secretion and action in response to increased granulosa cell estradiol synthesis, and that XIAP up-regulation in response to FSH suppresses granulosa cell apoptosis and facilitates FSH-induced follicular growth. 相似文献

FSH , but not LH, increased the O2 uptake of isolated granulosa cells from 23 day old rats previously treated with DES or with DES and FSH. Dose response studies showed that the cells were most sensitive to FSH when the cellular binding of FSH was highest. LH increased the O2 uptake of granulosa cells of untreated 30 day old rats. DES treatment inhibited the LH induced rise in O2 uptake when the rats were implanted with DES capsules unless FSH was injected to induce LH receptors. Addition of dbcAMP increased O2 uptake of granulosa cells from 30 day old rats at concentrations 10X lower than those required to stimulate O2 uptake in cells from 23 day old rats treated with DES alone.FSH increased lactate formation in the absence of added substrates but did not do so when glucose was added to the media. In contrast, LH greatly increased lactate formation with added glucose. Dose response studies showed that less than 0.6 ug/ml LH S21 was effective in increasing lactate above control levels. These data suggest that FSH affects aerobic pathways while LH affects anaerobic pathways in the process of the differentiation of granulosa cells toward luteal cells.It is well known that FSH and LH interact with their target cells in the ovary by binding to specific receptors and that FSH stimulates LH-receptor production (1). Receptor binding by either hormone activates adenylate cyclase (2) raising cyclic adenosine monosphosphate (cAMP) levels (3) and increasing protein kinase activity (4). Such changes probably trigger changes in the major metabolic pathways that support follicular development because cells of corpora lutea have glycogen (5) which is not present in follicular granulosa cells (6–9). Several studies suggest that FSH and LH may regulate metabolic processes in the ovary. LH increases lactate in whole prepuberal ovaries (10,11,12) and also increases the uptake of glucose (13). FSH increases oxygen uptake in chick ovaries (14), rat ovaries (15) and prairie dog ovaries (16). However, only one study has been done using isolated ovarian cells. Hamberger (17) has reported that FSH increased the oxygen uptake of thecal cells of immature rats while LH increased the oxygen uptake of granulosa cells. Since granulosa cells from immature rats are reported to have FSH receptors while theca cells have LH receptors the effects of these hormones appear unclear.The present studies were undertaken to more accurately characterize the actions of FSH, LH, and dibutyryl cAMP (dbcAMP) on the oxygen uptake of isolated granulosa cells and remaining tissues of immature ovaries and to determine the effects of FSH and LH on the production of lactate by granulosa cells. 相似文献

The present study was conducted to test the effects of KNO3, KH2PO4, and CaCl2 on shoot multiplication, root proliferation, and accumulation of phytochemicals in in vitro cultures of Oroxylum indicum. The results indicate that modifying the MS salt formulation in relation to particular inorganic nutrients highly affected shoot multiplication, root proliferation, and accumulation of flavonoids in in vitro cultures. A concentration of 0.60 g L?1 CaCl2 resulted in the highest frequency of shoot regeneration (5.6 shoots per explant). A concentration of 0.40 g L?1 CaCl2 resulted in the highest frequency of root regeneration (7.8 roots per shoot). Modifications of the concentrations of inorganic salts were also found to be advantageous for production media for both multiple shoots and shoot-derived root in vitro cultures. Multiple shoots generated on shoot induction medium with a concentration of 0.60 g L?1 CaCl2 and roots generated on root induction medium with a concentration of 1.5 g L?1 KNO3 yielded about a five times higher flavonoid level than cultures generated on control medium respectively. 相似文献

Expression of gonadotropin receptors and granulosa cell sensitivity to gonadotropin hormones by small (1-3 mm) and large (3.5-7 mm) follicles were compared in Romanov (ROM, ovulation rate = 3) and Ile-de-France (IF, ovulation rate = 1) ewes in the early and late follicular phase. In healthy follicles, LH receptor levels in granulosa cells increased with increasing follicular size (p < 0. 001) while FSH receptor levels decreased (p < 0.05). In granulosa cells of large follicles, LH receptor (LHR) mRNA levels were greater in the late than in the early follicular phase (p < 0.001, p < 0.05, for ROM and IF, respectively). In the early follicular phase, LHR levels in granulosa (p < 0.001) and theca cells (p < 0.05) of small follicles were greater in ROM than in IF ewes. FSH receptor mRNA levels in granulosa cells of small and large ROM follicles were greater than in the corresponding IF follicles (p < 0.05). Finally, a greater responsiveness (increase in cAMP secretion) to both FSH and hCG was observed by granulosa cells collected during the early follicular phase from ROM vs. IF ewes. Data provide evidence that the greater ovulation rate in the ROM as compared to the IF breed is associated with a greater gonadotropin responsiveness during the early follicular phase. 相似文献

While the germ cell-specific RNA binding protein, DAZL, is essential for oocytes to survive meiotic arrest, DAZL heterozygous (het) mice have an increased ovulation rate that is associated with elevated inhibin B and decreased plasma follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). The relationship between decreased oocyte DAZL expression and enhanced follicular development in het mice was investigated using in vitro follicle cultures and in vivo modulation of endogenous FSH, by treating mice with inhibin and exogenous FSH. In vitro, follicles from het mice are more sensitive to FSH than those of wild-type (wt) mice and can grow in FSH concentrations that are deleterious to wild-type follicles. In vivo, despite no differences between genotypes in follicle population profiles, analysis of granulosa cell areas in antral follicles identified a significantly greater number of antral follicles with increased granulosa cell area in het ovaries. Modulation of FSH in vivo, using decreasing doses of FSH or ovine follicular fluid as a source of inhibin, confirmed the increased responsiveness of het antral follicles to FSH. Significantly more follicles expressing aromatase protein confirmed the earlier maturation of granulosa cells in het mice. In conclusion, it is suggested that DAZL expression represses specific unknown genes that regulate the response of granulosa cells to FSH. If this repression is reduced, as in DAZL het mice, then follicles can grow to the late follicular stage despite declining levels of circulating FSH, thus leading to more follicles ovulating and increased litter size. 相似文献

The factors involved in the inhibition of ovarian follicular cellular growth after the luteinizing hormone (LH) surge are poorly established. The aim of this study was to investigate the production of an inhibitory growth factor by human ovarian cells. Luteinized granulosa cells were obtained from an assisted fertilization program and were cultured in the presence or absence of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and estradiol. Data obtained by cell counting showed that the number of human luteinized granulosa cells cultured in the presence of fetal bovine serum (10%) increased 1.8-fold within a 2-day period. In serum-free medium, human luteinized granulosa cells were able to incorporate 3H-thymidine, measured during consecutive 48 h periods. During all the periods tested (up to 7 days), low basal levels of thymidine incorporation were measured and were further reduced in the presence of FSH (200 ng/ml) and estradiol (500 ng/ml). To elucidate the possible production of an inhibitory growth factor, 3H-thymidine incorporation by rat granulosa cell cultures was measured in the presence of conditioned media (CM; from human granulosa cell cultures). In this system, FSH and estradiol elicited a tenfold increase in thymidine incorporation. The addition of CM (10% v/v collected on day 2) to FSH- and estradiol-treated granulosa cell cultures produced an inhibition (61%) of thymidine incorporation. The active factor in CM withstood freeze-thawing, was stable for several weeks at – 20°C, became unstable at 4°C, and was heat labile and sensitive to proteolysis. Ultrafiltration using membranes with different molecular weight cutoffs suggested that the factor had a molecular weight >30,000 dalton. We suggest that an inhibitory growth factor produced by human luteinized granulosa cells could be involved in the differentiation of growing follicles to corpus luteum. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

The PepP protein has been purified in vitro and characterized for the first time. It is encoded by the sll0136 gene of the unicellular cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC6803. It is established that the PepP protein is a Mn2+-dependent Xaa-Pro-specific aminopeptidase. The protein in the reaction of hydrolysis of the fluorescent peptide Lys(N-Abz)-Pro-Pro-pNA has a maximal activity at pH 7.6 and 32°C. 相似文献

Poor oral bioavailability is the single most important challenge in drug delivery. Prominent among the factors responsible for this is metabolic activity of the intestinal and hepatic cytochrome P450 (CYP450) enzymes. In preliminary studies, it was demonstrated that 8-arm-PEG was able to inhibit the felodipine metabolism. Therefore, this report investigated the oral bioavailability-enhancing property of 8-arm-PEG employing detailed in vitro, in vivo, and in silico evaluations. The in vitro metabolism of felodipine by cytochrome P450 3A4-expressed human liver microsomes (HLM) was optimized yielding a typical Michaelis–Menten plot through the application of Enzyme Kinetic Module software from where the enzyme kinetic parameters were determined. In vitro investigation of 8-arm-poly(ethylene glycol) against CYP3A4-catalyzed felodipine metabolism employing human liver microsomes compared closely with naringenin, a typical grapefruit flavonoid, yielding IC50 values of 7.22 and 121.97 μM, respectively. The investigated potential of 8-arm-poly(ethylene glycol) in oral drug delivery yielded satisfactory in vitro drug release results. The in vivo studies of the effects of 8-arm-poly(ethylene glycol) on the oral bioavailability of felodipine as performed in the Large White pig model showed a >100% increase in plasma felodipine levels compared to controls, with no apparent effect on systemic felodipine clearance. The outcome of this research presents a novel CYP3A4 inhibitor, 8-arm-poly(ethylene glycol) for oral bioavailability enhancement. 相似文献

Activin A regulation of the expression of mRNA for the LH receptor, FSH receptor, and the inhibin alpha subunit as well as the effect of activin A on the secretion of progesterone were investigated in chicken granulosa cell cultures. Granulosa layers were isolated from the F(1) and F(3) + F(4) follicles from five hens, pooled according to size, dispersed, and cultured for 48 h. In experiment 1 (n = 3 replications), granulosa cells were cultured with or without highly purified ovine (o) FSH at 50 ng/ml and in the presence of 0, 10, or 50 ng/ml of recombinant chicken activin A. Experiment 2 (n = 4 replications) followed the same protocol as experiment 1, except that oFSH was replaced with oLH. Results from these experiments showed that addition of activin A to the granulosa cell cultures had no effect on the expression of mRNA for the inhibin alpha subunit or the FSH receptor, but it did affect the expression of mRNA for the LH receptor. Treatment of F(3) + F(4) granulosa cells with LH stimulated the expression of mRNA for the LH receptor; however, when LH was combined with either dose of activin A, this induction was prevented. The highest dose of activin A with or without LH resulted in decreased expression of the LH receptor compared to the untreated controls in the F(3) + F(4) cell cultures. Progesterone secretion by the granulosa cells from both follicle sizes was not altered by activin A. In experiment 3 (n = 3 replications), the effect of activin A on the growth of granulosa cells was examined with the following treatments: 0, 10, or 50 ng/ml of activin A; 50 ng/ml of either oLH or oFSH; and oLH or oFSH combined with 10 ng/ml of activin A. The highest dose of activin reduced the rate of granulosa cell proliferation in both follicle types. Growth of F(1) and F(3) + F(4) granulosa cells was stimulated by the addition of either gonadotropin, and the presence of 10 ng/ml of activin A with either gonadotropin did not alter this proliferation, except for the LH-treated F(3) + F(4) granulosa cells, in which the increase in proliferation was prevented. The results suggest that activin A could act as a local factor that regulates follicular maturation by preventing excessive or untimely LH receptor expression. 相似文献

Leuconostoc pseudomesenteroides 607, isolated from persimmon fruit, was found to have high inhibitory activity against Listeria monocytogenes and several other Gram-positive bacteria. Inhibitory substances were purified from culture supernatant by ion-exchange chromatography, Sep-Pak C18 cartridge, and reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC). Two antibacterial peptides were observed during the purification procedures. One of these peptides had a molecular size of 4623.05 Da and a partial N-terminal amino acid sequence of NH2-KNYGNGVHxTKKGxS, in which the YGNGV motif is specific for class IIa bacteriocins. A BLAST search revealed that this bacteriocin was similar to leucocin C from Leuconostoc mesenteroides. Leucocin C-specific primers were designed and a single PCR product was amplified. Analysis of the nucleotide sequence has revealed a putative peptide differing by only one amino acid residue from the sequence of leucocin C. No identical peptide or protein has been reported in the literature, and this peptide, termed leucocin C-607, was therefore considered to be a new variant of leucocin C produced by Leuc. pseudomesenteroides 607. Another antibacterial peptide purified from the same culture supernatant had a molecular size of 3007.7 or 3121.97 Da. However, detailed information regarding this second peptide remains to be determined. Distinct characteristics, such as heat stability and inhibitory spectrum, were observed for the two bacteriocins produced by Leuc. pseudomesenteroides 607. These results suggested that Leuc. pseudomesenteroides 607 produces leucocin C-607 along with another unknown bacteriocin. 相似文献

To test whether amino acid mutations in the PBC and PHI loops of VP2 are involved in the replication and virulence of infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV), a pair of viruses, namely the moderately virulent IBDV (rGx-F9VP2) and the attenuated strain (rGt), were used. Residue mutations A222P (PBC) and S330R (PHI), selected by sequence comparison, were introduced individually into rGx-F9VP2 by using a reverse genetics system. In addition, the reverse mutation of either P222A or R330S was introduced into rGt. The four modified viruses were then rescued and evaluated in vitro (CEF cells) and in vivo (SPF chickens). Results showed that A222P elevated the replication efficiency of rGx-F9VP2 while P222A reduced that of rGt in CEF cells. A mutation at residue 330 did not alter IBDV replication. In addition, animal experiments showed that a single mutation at either residue 222 or 330 did not significantly influence the virulence of IBDV. In conclusion, residue 222 in PBC of VP2 is involved in the replication efficiency of IBDV in vitro but does not affect its virulence in vivo, further facilitating our understanding of the gene-function of IBDV. 相似文献

Clinical evidence suggests an association between galactosaemia and premature ovarian insufficiency (POI); however, the mechanism still remains unresolved. Experimental galactose toxicity in rats produces an array of ovarian dysfunction including ovarian development with deficient follicular reserve and follicular resistance to gonadotrophins that characterize the basic tenets of human POI. The present investigation explores if galactose toxicity in rats attenuates the bioactivity of gonadotrophins or interferes with their receptor competency, and accelerates the rate of follicular atresia. Pregnant rats were fed isocaloric food-pellets supplemented with or without 35% D-galactose from day-3 of gestation and continuing through weaning of the litters. The 35-day old female litters were autopsied. Serum galactose-binding capacity, galactosyltransferase (GalTase) activity, and bioactivity of FSH and LH together with their receptor competency were assessed. Ovarian follicular atresia was evaluated in situ by TUNEL. The in vitro effects of galactose were studied in isolated whole follicles in respect of generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and expression of caspase 3, and in isolated granulosa cells in respect of mitochondrial membrane potential, expression of p53, and apoptosis. The rats prenatally exposed to galactose exhibited significantly decreased serum GalTase activity and greater degree of galactose-incorporation capacity of sera proteins. LH biopotency and LH-FSH receptor competency were comparable between the control and study population, but the latter group showed significantly attenuated FSH bioactivity and increased rate of follicular atresia. In culture, galactose increased follicular generation of ROS and expression of caspase 3. In isolated granulosa cells, galactose disrupted mitochondrial membrane potential, stimulated p53 expression, and induced apoptosis in vitro; however co-treatment with either FSH or estradiol significantly prevented galactose-induced granulosa cell p53 expression. We conclude that the ovotoxic effects of galactose involves attenuation of FSH bioactivity that renders the ovary resistant to gonadotrophins leading to increased granulosa cell expression of p53 and follicular atresia. 相似文献

Sixty-eight bacterial cultures were isolated from 5 archaeological soils in Egypt. It is necessary to characterize bacteria from ancient temples to develop protection programs for such archaeological places. Purified bacterial cultures were then tested for their capability to inhibit some multi-drug resistant (MDR) pathogenic bacteria including Staphylococcus aureus, Listeria monocytogenes, Bacillus cereus, Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Among the most active 10 antibacterial isolates, only one isolate designated as S5I4 was selected, characterized and identified as belonging to Bacillus amyloliquefaciens. The strain identification was confirmed by amplification of its 16S rRNA gene. The partial nucleotide sequence of the amplified 16S rRNA gene of the tested strain was submitted in GenBank with accession number AB813716. The physical and nutritional parameters were optimized to improve the production of antimicrobial agents by the B. amyloliquefaciens S5I4. The maximum antagonistic effect of this strain against the tested MDR pathogenic bacteria was achieved in presence of 1% galactose and 0.5% yeast extract at 37°C and pH 7.0 after 48 h incubation. The antibacterial compounds of B. amyloliquefaciens S5I4 were extracted, purified and characterized using spectroscopic analysis (IR, UV, proton NMR and MS). The compound having inhibitory activity was identified as butanedioic acid, octadecyl,1(1carboxy1methylethyl) 4octyl ester. 相似文献

The effect of four C21-steroids, progesterone (P4), 17,20β-dihydroxy-4-pregnen-3-one (17,20βP), 17,20β,21-trihydroxy-4-pregnen-3-one (20βS) and 11-desoxycortisol (S), on in vitro oocyte maturation in Siberian sturgeon (Acipenser baeri Brandt) females was demonstrated using short-term (5 and 30 min) exposures of ovarian follicles to steroid solutions followed by incubation in steroid-free medium. The study aimed to find out which of the four candidates for a maturationinducing steroid (P4, 17,20βP, 20βS or S) induces a fastest germinal vesicle breakdown (GVBD) in oocytes of Siberian sturgeon. Dissolution of the oocyte nucleus or GVBD was taken as a criterion of oocyte maturation. Dose-response profiles of hormone activities as well as effects of the hormones under short-term exposures of follicles to their equal doses were compared. P4 was found to be a most active GVBD inducer compared to other C21-steroids, S was the second in its activity, whereas 17,20βP and 20βS were less efficient. A comparison of the present and previously obtained data on the dynamics of C21-steroids in vivo and their effect on ovarian follicles in vitro indicates an important role of the above hormones, particularly P4 and 20βS, in the regulation of the final stage of oocyte maturation in sturgeons. 相似文献

The mammalian ovarian cycle is a strictly regulated process that is dependent on the intimate interactions among the 3 cell types in the follicle — theca, granulosa, and oocyte. The cycle has been shown to be controlled by gonadotropins as well as locally produced peptide factors. In this study, an in vitro culture system was used to study the roles of 2 locally produced ovarian peptide factors, transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) and activin-A, on porcine granulosa cell steroidogenesis. Gonadotropin stimulated cultured porcine granulosa cells (from medium-sized follicles) were pretreated with 100 ng/ml follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) for 48 h and then treated with 1 ng/ml TGF-β1, 100 ng/ml activin-A, TGF-β1 plus activin-A, or received no treatment (control) for 48 h, From our previous studies, the concentrations of the 2 growth factors were determined to produce maximal antisteroidogenic effects in porcine granulosa cells. Progesterone (P4) production, estradiol-17β (E2) production, and aromatase activity for gonadotropin-stimulated porcine granulosa cells treated with TGF-β1, activin-A, and TGF-β1 plus activin-A were significantly (P < 0.05) reduced fromthat of the control. The same procedures were conducted on basal steroidogenesis studies in which no pretreatment with FSH was performed. Both P4 and E2 production and aromatase activity for porcine granulosa cells treated with TGF-β1, activin-A and TGF-β1 plus activin-A were significantly (P < 0.05) inhibited compared with the control. Our results indicate that both TGF-β1 and activin-A can inhibit FSH-stimulated and basal steroidogeneses in porcine granulosa cells and, thus, may act as local atretic factors during follicular development. When the 2 growth factors were given in combination at concentrations that would produce maximal steroidogenic inhibition, they were not able to produce a synergistic effect. These results are consistent with the current theory that TGF-β1 and activin-A may act via the same messenger system, a serine-threonine kinase. 相似文献

Pfu DNA polymerase (Pfu) is a DNA polymerase isolated from the hyperthermophilic archaeon Pyrococcus furiosus. With its excellent thermostability and high fidelity, Pfu is well known as one of the enzymes widely used in the polymerase chain reaction. In this study, the recombinant plasmid pLysS His6-tagged Pfu-pET28a was constructed. His-tagged Pfu was expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) competent cells and then successfully purified with the ÄKTAprime plus compact one-step purification system by Ni2+ chelating affinity chromatography after optimization of the purification conditions. The authenticity of the purified Pfu was further confirmed by peptide mass fingerprinting. A bio-assay indicated that its activity in the polymerase chain reaction was equivalent to that of commercial Pfu and its isoelectric point was found to be between 6.85 and 7.35. These results will be useful for further studies on Pfu and its wide application in the future. 相似文献
