Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) is thought to facilitate the recruitment and migration of monocytes/macrophages to sites of inflammation. Here we investigated whether the luteolytic effect of prolactin in the hypophysectomized rat is associated with the expression of ICAM-1. In addition, we examined the effect of exogenous testosterone (or its potential conversion to estradiol endoge...
This study was designed to determine whether leptin modulates growth hormone (GH)- and insulin like growth factor-I (IGF-I)-stimulated progesterone (P4) production by corpora lutea (CL). Luteal cells were recovered from early developing (ELP) and mature (MLP) corpora lutea and cultured in defined medium with various combinations of GH, IGF-I, and leptin (0-200 ng/ml). P4 concentrations in the m...
Free radicals increase in the presence of diabetes. Lycopene is a powerful antioxidant. The goal of the present study was to determine the effect of diabetes on rat ovaries and the protective role of lycopene in that context. Experimental diabetes was induced with 50 mg÷kg streptozotocin. Rats were randomly separated into four groups, as follows: control + corn oil, control + lycopene, diabetes...
Twenty-one pregnant ewe lambs (nine superovulated and 12 non-superovulated) were used to study the effects of superovulation (injecting 700 IU PMSG at the end of diestrus) on maternal serum progesterone concentrations, uterine and fetal weights at weeks 7 and 15 of pregnancy. In the ewes sacrificed at week 7 of pregnancy, superovulation increased the mean number of corpora lutea (P<0.01), fetus...
The objective of this study was to examine the efficiency of a novel method of early pregnancy diagnosis in cows. This method was based on crosssectional area changes of corpora lutea measured by transrectal ultrasonography. One hundred forty one Japanese Black cows were artificially inseminated and divided into four groups according to examination days. Corpora lutea of all cows in each group ...
The present study was undertaken to investigate the aromatization capability of pig corpora lutea at different stages of the luteal phase using the nonsteroidal aromatase inhibitor CGS 16949A. Luteal cells were collected during early (0-2 days after ovulation), mid- (7-10 days after ovulation) and late (13-16 days after ovulation) luteal phase. Cells were incubated either with or without 10(-7)...
To investigate the possible role of the superoxide radical and its scavenging system in the human corpus luteum, superoxide dismutase (SOD) values and lipid peroxide concentrations were analysed in the corpora lutea during the menstrual cycle and in early pregnancy. Copper-zinc SOD (Cu,Zn-SOD) activities increased from the early to mid-luteal phase, and gradually decreased thereafter and were t...
Relationships between plasma progesterone and luteinizing hormone (LH) and the numbers of corpora lutea and embryos were determined in 133 8-month-old purebred Duroc, Hampshire and Yorkshire gilts and two-breed crosses among the three breeds. The numbers of corpora lutea and normal embryos were determined at slaughter on day 30.8 +/- .2 of pregnancy, and progesterone and LH were quantified in p...
A study was done to test whether ovulatory follicles destined to form subfunctional corpora lutea differed from normal ovulatory follicles in steroidogenic function. Twenty-five ewes were treated with prostaglandin F2 alpha on d 11 of the estrous cycle, then unilaterally ovariectomized before (n = 13) or after (n = 12) the surge of luteinizing hormone (LH) at the induced estrus to collect "cont...
