Progesterone stimulates pancreatic cell proliferation in vivo.
Treatment of cyclic and pregnant rats with progesterone stimulates cell proliferation within the islets of Langerhans. It was investigated whether this effect of progesterone depends on sex and/or the presence of the gonads or the presence of oestradiol. For this purpose, Silastic tubes containing progesterone were inserted s.c. in intact and gonadectomized male and female rats, and in gonadect...
متن کاملAssessment of the mechanism by which prolactin stimulates progesterone production by early corpora lutea of pigs.
Previously, we reported that administration of prolactin (PRL) during the early luteal phase in sows increases plasma progesterone concentrations. In the current study, we searched for the mechanisms by which PRL exerts this luteotrophic effect. The objectives of the study were (1) to examine the effect of PRL and/or low-density lipoproteins (LDL) on progesterone production by porcine luteal ce...
متن کاملEstrogen, Progesterone and Epithelial Ovarian Cancer
Ovarian carcinoma (OCa) continues to be the leading cause of death due to gynecologic malignancies and the vast majority of OCa is derived from the ovarian surface epithelium (OSE) and its cystic derivatives. Epidemiological evidence strongly suggests that steroid hormones, primarily estrogens and progesterone, are implicated in ovarian carcinogenesis. However, it has proved difficult to fully ...
متن کاملLong-Term Moderate Oxidative Stress Decreased Ovarian Reproductive Function by Reducing Follicle Quality and Progesterone Production
Ovarian aging is a long-term and complex process associated with a decrease in follicular quantity and quality. The damaging effects of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in ovarian aging and ovarian aging-associated disorders have received relatively little attention. Thus, we assessed if the oxidative stress induced by long-term (defined by the Environmental Protection Agency as at least 30 days i...
متن کاملEstradiol, Progesterone and Cytokines Production
OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of estradiol and progesterone on interferon-γ (IFN-γ), interleukin (IL)-12, IL-10 and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) productions in polyclonal activators (phyto hemagglutinin+lipopolysaccharide)-stimulated whole blood cultures. METHODS : Nineteen healthy males and females volunteered in the study. Blood samples were drawn, dilu...
