Regulation of progesterone receptor gene expression.
The levels of progesterone receptor (PR) mRNA, PR protein, and [3H]R5020 binding activity were measured in parallel experiments conducted on a T47D subline expressing the estrogen receptor. A significant increase of PR mRNA levels could be detected within 6 h of exposure of the cells to estradiol (10(-8) M). The changes in mRNA, however, did not lead to any variation of PR protein levels of [3H...
متن کاملStructures, Functions and Expressions of GnRH and GnRH Receptor in Peripheral Reproductive Organs and Their Regulation by Estradiol-17β
Studies have shown that estradiol-17β (E2) regulates gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) and GnRH receptor expression in hypothalamus and pituitary. Several studies have shown that GnRH and its receptor are also expressed in peripheral reproductive organs and little is known about their regulations. In this study, GnRH and GnRH receptor structures, functions, their peripheral expressions and ...
متن کاملTranscriptional Regulation of The Porcine GnRH Receptor Gene by Glucocorticoids
The binding of GnRH to its receptor results in the synthesis and secretion of the gonadotropins, as well as stimulation of the gene encoding its own receptor. Thus, the interaction between GnRH and GnRHR represents a central point for regulation of reproductive function. Glucocorticoids can alter reproduction by reducing GnRH responsiveness of gonadotropes within the anterior pituitary gland, p...
متن کاملControl of oocyte release by progesterone receptor-regulated gene expression
The progesterone receptor (PGR) is a nuclear receptor transcription factor that is essential for female fertility, in part due to its control of oocyte release from the ovary, or ovulation. In all mammals studied to date, ovarian expression of PGR is restricted primarily to granulosa cells of follicles destined to ovulate. Granulosa cell expression of PGR is induced by the pituitary Luteinizing...
متن کاملGenetic mechanisms mediating kisspeptin regulation of GnRH gene expression.
Kisspeptins (Kiss) have been shown to be key components in the regulation of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) secretion. In vitro studies have demonstrated an increase in GnRH gene expression by Kiss suggesting regulation of GnRH at both the secretory and pretranslational levels. Here, we define genetic mechanisms that mediate Kiss action on target gene expression. In vitro, sequential del...
