冻融小鼠卵巢移植后细胞凋亡及血管内皮生长因子表达的变化及意义研究

目的:探讨冻融小鼠卵巢同种异体移植后细胞凋亡及血管内皮生长因子表达的变化及意义。方法:收集C57BL/6j雌鼠和BALB/c雄鼠杂交后F1代4周龄小鼠卵巢,慢冻速融后移植至杂交后F1代8～12周雄鼠的肾被膜下,分别于移植后1d(24h)、2d(48h)和7d回收移植物,将冻融以及移植后不同时间段的卵巢组织进行HE染色、全卵巢卵泡计数、电镜观察、免疫组织化学分析细胞凋亡及RT-PCR检测VEGF基因表达。结果:冻融小鼠卵巢移植后随着时间的推移、各级卵泡数和卵泡存活率逐渐下降;移植后48h内细胞凋亡指数最高;电镜观察发现小鼠卵巢组织移植后损伤主要发生在移植后48h内;移植后VEGF的表达有上升的趋势,至第7d仍维持较高水平;移植后48hVEGF120mRNA和VEGF188mRNA水平明显升高(P0.05),至7d下降恢复至移植前水平,而VEGF164mRNA水平移植后无明显变化(P0.05)。结论:小鼠卵巢组织移植后48h内细胞凋亡最为严重,移植后引起大量卵泡的丢失;在移植后血管化的过程中VEGFmRNA表达量增加,VEGF120mRNA和VEGF188mRNA可能参与卵巢移植后早期血管化过程。     

雌激素受体α抑制剂MPP在小鼠囊胚形成和滋养层干细胞中影响YAP核定位

Differences in prolactin receptor (PRLR) in mouse and human fallopian tubes: evidence for multiple regulatory mechanisms controlling PRLR isoform expression in mice

The anterior pituitary-derived hormone prolactin (PRL) signals through the PRL receptor (PRLR) and is important for female reproductive function in mammals. In contrast to the extensive studies of PRLR expression and regulation in human and mouse ovary and uterus, the mechanisms controlling the regulation of PRLR isoform expression in the fallopian tube are poorly understood. Because dynamic interaction of hormonal signaling in gonadal tissue and the pituitary or in gonadal tissues themselves in mammals suggests endocrine or paracrine regulation of PRLR expression, we questioned whether differential regulation of PRLR isoforms by PRL ovarian-derived estrogen (E(2)) and progesterone (P(4)) exists in the fallopian tube and pituitary of prepubertal female mice. Western blot analysis showed distinct molecular separation of PRLR isoforms in mouse and human fallopian tubes, and cellular localization was found in mouse and human tubal epithelia but not in mouse tubal smooth muscle cells. These data support the concept of an isoform- and cell type-specific expression of PRLR in human and mouse fallopian tubes. Moreover, expression of the long form of PRLR decreased after PRL treatment and increased after blockage of endogenous PRL secretion by bromocriptine (an inhibitor of PRL secretion) in a time-dependent manner in mouse fallopian tube. The opposite regulation was observed in the pituitary. Treatment with exogenous E(2) or P(4) led to changes in PRLR expression in the fallopian tube similar to those of PRL treatment. However, E(2) and P(4) did not affect PRLR expression in the pituitary. Estrogen had no effect on the long form of PRLR expression, whereas P(4) regulated the long form of PRLR in the fallopian tube, as did PRL. Taken together, the data from our comparative study provide evidence that PRLR can be regulated by an interplay of two different mechanisms, PRL or ovarian steroid hormones independently or in combination in a tissue-specific manner. Furthermore, we found that ovarian steroid hormones selectively suppress the expression of PRLR isoforms in mouse fallopian tubes. These findings may contribute to our understanding of the mechanisms controlling PRLR isoform expression in the fallopian tube (in addition to ovary and uterus), with implications for female reproduction.     

The development of the mouse ovary and its response to exogenous gonadotrophins.

Immature mice aged 14 to 49 days were treated with a single injection of 4 i.u. HCG, or 3 i.u. PMSG followed 48 hr later by 2 i.u. HCG. After treatment with HCG alone the number of oocytes which were ovulated rose gradually from Day 21 to Day 28 and then remained constant, while the combined PMSG+HCG treatment induced a peak response between Days 24 and 28. The percentage of animals responding also varied with age and treatment. After the combined PMSG+HCG treatment, 90% of the animals ovulated on Day 21, while a similar proportion was not achieved in response to HCG alone until Day 32. The variation in response with age and treatment was related to follicular development within the ovary.     

周龄和激素水平对长爪沙鼠超数排卵效果的影响

目的探讨不同周龄和激素水平对长爪沙鼠超数排卵效果的影响,以期确定长爪沙鼠最佳超排周龄和激素使用剂量。方法腹腔注射10 IU PMSG/HCG对4～18周龄8个年龄段的雌性长爪沙鼠进行超数排卵,末次注射16～17 h内对各组动物卵母细胞计数,确定最佳超排周龄后,对该年龄动物以5、10、15 IU3个剂量水平腹腔注射PMSG/HCG,观察各组动物的卵母细胞计数差异。结果与其它周龄组相比,6周龄组长爪沙鼠超数排卵后的卵母细胞数最多,各组间有统计学意义（P〈0.05）,而5、10、15IU等3个剂量组的超排效果也有一定的差异,10 IU组数量最高。结论对长爪沙鼠而言,采用10 IU激素注射和6周龄的动物进行超数排卵,获得的卵母细胞数量最多而且超排效果稳定性。     

Physiological peripubertal activation of the ovary is not reproduced by pregnant mare serum gonadotropin (PMSG) administration

During the days preceding the first ovulation the ovary of the rat exhibits a remarkable increase in estradiol (E2) and progesterone (P) release in response to gonadotropins. No such increase is observed in the case of androgens (A, testosterone + dihydrotestosterone). The present experiments were undertaken to examine the possibility of reproducing these developmental events by stimulating the ovary with a gonadotropin that has substantial FSH-like activity. In vivo administration of pregnant mare serum gonadotropin (PMSG) to juvenile 29-day-old rats greatly increased the in vitro E2 and A response to human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) measured 2 days later in the morning. The magnitude of the A response was significantly larger than that of ovaries from juvenile animals or rats in first proestrus. The E2 response was much greater than that of juvenile ovaries but similar to that of ovaries from late proestrous rats. In contrast, the P response to hCG was not enhanced by PMSG. In fact the response was similar to that of juvenile ovaries and markedly less than that of first proestrous rats. This decreased P response was not due to a greater conversion of P to its less active metabolite 20 alpha-hydroxy-4-pregnen-3-one (20 alpha-OH-P). The results suggest that PMSG enhances the E2 and A response of immature ovaries to hCG at the expense of that of P. Treatment of immature rats with PMSG may represent a useful model to study E2 release from preovulatory ovaries, but it cannot be used to reproduce in its entirety the developmental changes in steroidal response to gonadotropins associated with normal puberty.     

Expression of bradykinin B2 receptor in the mouse ovary

The amounts of [1-5]-bradykinin in ovary extracts were determined using gonadotropin-treated immature female mice. The bradykinin levels in the ovary were high at 2, 6, and 48 hr after injection of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) into pregnant mare's serum gonadotropin (PMSG)-treated mice. Northern blot analysis of total RNAs isolated from the PMSG/hCG-treated mouse ovaries indicated that the B(2) receptor mRNA was constitutively expressed. Bradykinin B(2) receptor protein was detected by Western blot analysis of the ovary extracts. In situ hybridization analysis revealed that the B(2) receptor mRNA is expressed in the granulosa cells of all growing follicles of ovaries from both gonadotropin-treated immature and mature female mice. The effect of bradykinin on the expression of the B(2) receptor gene was examined by RT-PCR analysis with the ovary previously cultured in the presence of bradykinin. Bradykinin treatment of immature female, gonadotropin-treated immature female, and mature female mouse ovaries brought about no apparent changes in the B(2) receptor mRNA level. The present data indicate that the level of B(2) receptor expression in the ovary is fairly constant, and that the biological effect elicited by bradykinin in this organ may be dependent upon concentrations of the ligand produced by operation of the kinin-kallikrein system.
