- W1968039353 abstract "The secretion of the gonadotropins is modulated by the gonadal steroids, but the means by which these effects are mediated are not well understood. The present anatomical study was undertaken to investigate the possibility that the GnRH system responds to alterations in the gonadal steroid environment with reversible changes in synaptic input and glial wrapping such as have been observed in other neuroendocrine systems. The ultrastructure of GnRH neurons was studied in the preoptic area and medial basal hypothalamus of rhesus monkeys in various steroid conditions including five intact cycling, four long-term ovariectomized animals, two long-term ovariectomized animals with steriod replacement (LtOVX+), and two animals replaced with steroid at the time of ovariectomy (StOVX+). Electron micrographic montages of GnRH neuronal profiles were analyzed using computerized morphometrics, and the percentages of the length of perikaryal membrane immediately apposed by glial processes and that with postsynaptic modification were calculated. Ovariectomy resulted in a significant increase in the apposition of glial processes to GnRH perikaryal membranes and a significant decrease in their innervation in both brain regions. There was also a higher incidence of GnRH neurons with immunostaining confined to secretory granules and a decrease in the volume of nucleoli, both of which could be interpreted as indications that GnRH peptide synthesis was reduced in ovariectomized animals. After an ovarian steroid replacement regimen which mimicked two menstrual cycles, the innervation of GnRH neurons was increased and the glial ensheathment was partially reduced. This was true for both the LtOVX+ and StOVX+ steroid-replacement groups. GnRH neurons in the medial basal hypothalamus received more synaptic input than did those in the preoptic area, regardless of the steroid condition of the animal. The degree of glial ensheathment of GnRH neurons in the preoptic area became significantly greater than that in the medial basal hypothalamus after ovariectomy. These observations suggest there may be differences in the role of GnRH neurons in these two brain regions. These immunocytochemical ultrastructural studies provide strong evidence that alterations in the gonadal steroid milieu can produce morphological changes in the GnRH neuron and its immediate environment in the primate." @default.
