Skoblina MN, Matikainen T, Huhtaniemi I, 1993, [The role of cAMP in suppressing the maturation of follicle-enclosed oocytes in the common frog and the clawed toad after their treatment with actinomycin D]., Ontogenez, Vol: 24, Pages: 56-65, ISSN: 0475-1450

During maturation of the follicle-enclosed Rana temporaria and Xenopus laevis oocytes stimulated by pituitary suspension or human chorionic gonadotropin, respectively, the level of cAMP (follicle+medium) increased. When maturation was stimulated by low concentrations of gonadotropic hormones (inducing; however, maturation in 100% or close to 100% cases), the cAMP level increased 1.5-3 fold. Both the increased concentration of gonadotropic hormones and pretreatment of the follicles with actinomycin D stimulated further increase in cAMP level. These treatments in combination led to a significant increase of cAMP and inhibition of oocyte maturation.

Sokka TA, Hämäläinen TM, Huhtaniemi IT, 1992, Ontogeny of gonadotropin action in the rat ovary., J Physiol Pharmacol, Vol: 43, Pages: 21-32, ISSN: 0867-5910

Specific binding of radiolabelled FSH and LH to rat ovaries was demonstrated at the age of 7 days. However, when the biological response to LH and FSH was monitored by cAMP production in vitro, the FSH response appeared earlier than that of LH, on days 4 and 7, respectively. Cholera toxin stimulated cAMP production even in fetal ovaries, suggesting the presence of functional post-receptor machinery of cAMP production. Hence, the appearance of the functional gonadotropin receptor probably plays a key role in the onset of postnatal ovarian steroidogenesis. To test the effect of gonadotropin suppression during postnatal ovarian development, a potent GnRH antagonist was administered to neonatal animals between days 1-6 or 1-9 of life. The ovarian responsiveness to FSH developed even in the absence of normal gonadotropin levels, but that to LH was suppressed after the longer antagonist treatment. The temporal relationship between the onset of LHR gene expression, i.e. transcription, and translation to functional receptor protein was thereafter investigated using the reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) technique. The measurements revealed the existence only of truncated versions of LHR mRNA in the fetal ovary from day 17 of gestation up to day 7 of postnatal life. With the onset of the receptor function around day 7, also larger mRNA transcripts, corresponding to the full-length receptor protein appeared. Our findings suggest that the LHR gene may be constitutively expressed in the ovary and a change in the alternative splicing pattern may cause the onset of translation of a functional receptor protein.

Bergendahl M, Wiemann JN, Clifton DK, Huhtaniemi I, Steiner RAet al., 1992, Short-term starvation decreases POMC mRNA but does not alter GnRH mRNA in the brain of adult male rats., Neuroendocrinology, Vol: 56, Pages: 913-920, ISSN: 0028-3835

Dietary restriction reduces circulating gonadotropin and testosterone levels in male rats, an effect thought to be mediated through reduced gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) secretion; however, the cellular mechanisms subserving this response are still unknown. We reasoned that if dietary restriction reduces GnRH secretion, this would be reflected by a decrease in GnRH synthesis and likewise cellular GnRH mRNA levels. We tested this hypothesis by comparing cellular levels of GnRH mRNA between ad libitum fed (n = 4) and starved (n = 4) adult male rats. Five days of starvation resulted in a 21% decrease in body weight and an 85% decline in serum testosterone levels (fed: 13.9 +/- 2.00 vs. starved: 2.1 +/- 0.70 nmol/l; p < 0.01). In situ hybridization and image analysis demonstrated that short-term starvation influenced neither GnRH cell number (fed: 148 +/- 16 vs. starved: 157 +/- 13 cells) nor cellular GnRH mRNA signal level (fed: 177 +/- 5 vs. starved: 160 +/- 7 grains/cell) in any region of the basal forebrain. Endogenous opioid peptides are known to exert an inhibitory effect on GnRH secretion and have been implicated in having a role in the starvation-induced effects on the reproductive system. We therefore also tested the hypothesis that alterations in proopiomelanocortin (POMC) gene expression are involved in the neuroendocrine response to starvation, by comparing cellular POMC mRNA levels in individual neurons (approximately 160 neurons/animal) of the arcuate and periarcuate nuclei between fed control (n = 4) and starved (n = 4) adult male rats.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
