Progesterone Inhibits Basal and Gonadotropin- Releasing Hormone Induction of Luteinizing Hormone -Subunit Gene Expression
LH and FSH play critical roles in mammalian reproduction by mediating steroidogenesis and gametogenesis in the gonad. Gonadal steroid hormone feedback to the hypothalamus and pituitary influences production of the gonadotropins. We previously demonstrated that progesterone differentially regulates the expression of the LH and FSH -subunits at the level of the gonadotrope: FSH transcription is i...

متن کاملAtrazine Binds to the Growth Hormone–Releasing Hormone Receptor and Affects Growth Hormone Gene Expression
BACKGROUND Atrazine (ATR), a commonly used herbicide in the United States, is widely distributed in water and soil because of its mobility through ecosystems and its persistence in the environment. ATR has been associated with defects in sexual development in animals, but studies on mammalian systems have failed to clearly identify a cellular target. OBJECTIVES Our goal in this study was to i...
متن کاملAn NF-Y binding site is important for basal, but not gonadotropin-releasing hormone-stimulated, expression of the luteinizing hormone beta subunit gene.
Regulated synthesis of luteinizing hormone (LH) requires coordinated transcriptional control of the alpha and LHbeta subunits in pituitary gonadotropes. Several cis-acting elements and trans-acting factors have been defined for control of the LHbeta promoter through heterologous cell culture models. In this report, we describe the identification of bipartite NF-Y (CBF/CP1) binding sites within ...
