- W1963571808 abstract "This report aimed to establish, using African catfish, Clarias gariepinus, as model species, a basis for understanding a well-known, although not yet clarified, feature of male fish reproductive physiology: the strong steroidogenic activity of FSHs. Assays with gonadotropin receptor-expressing cell lines showed that FSH activated its cognate receptor (FSHR) with an at least 1000-fold lower EC50 than when challenging the LH receptor (LHR), whereas LH stimulated both receptors with similar EC50s. In androgen release bioassays, FSH elicited a significant response at lower concentrations than those required to cross-activate of the LHR, indicating that FSH stimulated steroid release via FSHR-dependent mechanisms. LHR/FSHR-mediated stimulation of androgen release was completely abolished by H-89, a specific protein kinase A inhibitor, pointing to the cAMP/protein kinase A pathway as the main route for both LH- and FSH-stimulated steroid release. Localization studies showed that intratubular Sertoli cells express FSHR mRNA, whereas, as reported for the first time in a vertebrate, catfish Leydig cells express both LHR and FSHR mRNA. Testicular FSHR and LHR mRNA expression increased gradually during pubertal development. FSHR, but not LHR, transcript levels continued to rise between completion of the first wave of spermatogenesis at about 7 months and full maturity at about 12 months of age, which was associated with a previously recorded approximately 3-fold increase in the steroid production capacity per unit testis weight. Taken together, our data strongly suggest that the steroidogenic potency of FSH can be explained by its direct trophic action on FSHR-expressing Leydig cells. In search of a mechanistic basis for the strong steroidogenic activity of fish FSH, we demonstrate FSH receptor expression by Leydig cells in catfish." @default.
