Different routes of natural progesterone supplementation have been tried as luteal phase support in infertility treatments. Orally administered progesterone is rapidly metabolized in the gastrointestinal tract and its use has proved to be inferior to i.m. and vaginal routes. Progesterone i.m. achieves serum progesterone values that are within the range of luteal phase and results in sufficient ...
Mast cell recruitment is implicated in many physiological functions and several diseases. It depends on microenvironmental factors, including hormones. We have investigated the effect of progesterone on the migration of HMC-1(560) mast cells toward CXCL12, a chemokine that controls the migration of mast cells into tissues. HMC-1(560) mast cells were incubated with 1 nM to 1 microM progesterone ...
Progesterone exerts beneficial effects on the human cardiovascular system by inducing rapid increases in nitric oxide (NO) production in vascular endothelial cells, but the receptors mediating these nongenomic progesterone actions remain unclear. Using human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) as a model, we show that progesterone binds to plasma membranes of HUVECs with the characteristi...
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to evaluate the serum levels of progesterone resulting from the application of a progesterone cream to the skin. STUDY DESIGN Six postmenopausal women were evaluated at a university clinic over a 4-week period. RESULTS Transdermal estradiol 0.05 mg was applied 2 days before the first application of progesterone (30 mg/d) and was continued throughout...
Many of the biological actions of progesterone are mediated through the progesterone receptor (PR), a nuclear transcription factor. Progesterone is well recognized to protect against seizures in animal models. Although this activity has been attributed to the progesterone metabolite allopregnanolone, a GABAA receptor-modulating neurosteroid with anticonvulsant properties, PRs could also play a ...
In women, high levels of natural progesterone have been associated with detrimental cognitive effects via the "maternal amnesia" phenomenon as well as in controlled experiments. In aged ovariectomized (Ovx) rats, progesterone has been shown to impair cognition and impact the GABAergic system in cognitive brain regions. Here, we tested whether the GABAergic system is a mechanism of progesterone'...
The fallopian tube plays an important role in successful female reproduction because it transport gametes to the fertilisation site, nourishes the developing embryo and transports the embryo to the uterus at a suitable time for implantation. The overall aim of this thesis was to investigate the role of progesterone in the control of gamete transport. Ciliary cells are important for the transpor...
Changes in mood, plasma progesterone concentration, urinary volume, sodium excretion, sodium:potassium ratio, and body weight during the menstrual cycle were determined in 18 women with premenstrual syndrome and 10 symptomless (control group) women. Plasma progesterone concentration was higher in the women with symptoms during the postovulatory phase of the cycle, and the peak progesterone conc...
Progesterone suppresses uterine contractility acting through its receptors (PRA/B). The mechanism by which human labour is initiated in the presence of elevated circulating progesterone has remained an enigma since Csapo first theorized of a functional withdrawal of progesterone in 1965. Here we report that in vitro progesterone-liganded nuclear PRB forms a complex including JUN/JUN homodimers ...
INTRODUCTION The present study aimed to determine if, as occurs in female rats, progesterone attenuates cocaine-induced reward and psychomotor responses in male rats. METHODS The role of progesterone in the acquisition and/or expression of cocaine-induced conditioned place preference (CPP) and locomotor responses of intact male rats was studied. For chronic progesterone treatment, rats receiv...
