background: despite extensive progress in ivf techniques, one of the most difficult problems is the variability in the response to controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (coh). recent studies show the effects of individual genetic variability on coh outcome. objective: to evaluate the correlation between lhβ g1502a polymorphisms in exon 3 of the lh gene and ovarian response to coh. materials and m...
The orphan nuclear receptor SF-1 (steroidogenic factor 1) is highly expressed in the pituitary, gonad and adrenal glands and plays key roles at all levels of the hypothalamic-pituitary-steroidogenic tissue axis. In the present study, we show that PGC-1α [PPARγ (peroxisome-proliferator-activated receptor γ) co-activator 1α] interacts with and co-activates SF-1 to induce LHβ (luteinizing hormone ...
The Lin-11, Isl-1, and Mec-3 (LIM) homeodomain transcription factor Isl-1 has been reported to be involved in pituitary development in the early stages of mouse embryogenesis. Our recent studies have shown that Isl-1 is mainly located in the pituitary gonadotropes throughout pituitary development and persists to adulthood. We still do not know the physiological functions of Isl-1 expression and...
Beta-defensins are important part of innate immunity of fish, which are the first defense line against invading pathogens. In this study, the β-defensin (Lhβ-defensin) gene was cloned from spleen tissue of soiny mullet (Liza haematocheila). Lhβ-defensin cDNA was 747 bp in length, encoding 63 amino acids. Sequence alignment revealed that Lhβ-defensin contained six conserved cysteine residues and...
Luteinizing hormone (LH) is synthesized and secreted throughout the reproductive cycle from gonadotrope cells in the anterior pituitary, and is required for steroidogenesis and ovulation. LH contains an α-subunit common with FSH, and a unique LHβ subunit that defines biological activity. Basal LHβ transcription is low and stimulated by hypothalamic GnRH, which induces synthesis of early growth ...
The coordinated secretion of LH and FSH are critical for reproductive functions. After translocation into the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), their biosynthetic routes diverge at a determinative step prior to sorting in the regulated (LH) and constitutive (FSH) secretion pathways. Recently, we identified a C-terminal heptapeptide sequence, present only in the LHβ subunit, as a critical signal for e...
Estrogens exert a feedback control on gonadotropin (GtH) secretion at the level of the hypothalamus and pituitary. In the present study, female catfish were ovariectomized (OVX) for 5 weeks in resting (December-January) and preparatory (March-April) phases and supplemented with estradiol-17β (E2, 0.05 and 0.5 μg/g body mass) in 3-week ovariectomized fish to demonstrate the nature of feedback co...
Increased glucocorticoid secretion is a common response to stress and has been implicated as a mediator of reproductive suppression upon the pituitary gland. We utilized complementary in vitro and in vivo approaches in the mouse to investigate the role of glucocorticoids as a stress-induced intermediate capable of gonadotrope suppression. Repeated daily restraint stress lengthened the ovulatory...
