- W1567702757 abstract "Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) cause abnormal development and physiology of the reproductive system. We hypothesized that these effects may be mediated, at least in part, by neuroendocrine cells in the hypothalamus that integrate inputs to and outputs from the central nervous system and reproductive systems. The effects of two PCB mixtures, Aroclor 1221 and Aroclor 1254, were tested on the hypothalamic GT1-7 cells, which synthesize and secrete the key hypothalamic hormone, gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH). GT1-7 cells were treated for 24 h in dose-response experiments and GnRH gene expression and release were quantified. Aroclor 1221 was stimulatory to GnRH gene expression, particularly at post-transcriptional levels (GnRH cytoplasmic mRNA), and increased GnRH peptide levels, suggesting a post-translational regulation of GnRH biosynthesis. It also caused a qualitative increase in GT1-7 neurite outgrowth and cell confluency. Aroclor 1254 had very different effects from Aroclor 1221. It inhibited GnRH nuclear mRNA levels at high dosages, and stimulated GnRH mRNA at low doses, suggesting a post-transcriptional mechanism of regulation. Aroclor 1254 did not alter GnRH peptide levels. Qualitatively, Aroclor 1254 caused a retraction of GT1-7 cell processes and neurotoxicity at high dosages. In order to gauge the involvement of the oestrogen receptor in these responses, the oestrogen receptor antagonist, ICI 182,780 (ICI) was coadministered in other studies with the PCBs. While effects of Aroclor 1221 on GnRH gene expression were not blocked by ICI, its effects on GnRH peptide levels were blocked by ICI, indicating that some but not all of the effects of Aroclor 1221 are mediated by the classical oestrogen receptor alpha and/or beta. The inhibitory effects of Aroclor 1254 on GnRH gene expression were not prevented by ICI, although ICI itself had stimulatory effects on GnRH gene expression that were blocked by cotreatment with Aroclor 1254. These results demonstrate a novel mechanism for effects of the two PCBs directly on GnRH gene expression, and indicate a hypothalamic level for endocrine disruption by these environmental toxicants." @default.
