- W2086882013 abstract "Antagonizing diestrous progesterone actions in cyclic rats by s.c. injections of the antiprogesterone RU486 (2 mg twice a day from metestrus through proestrus) increased LH and decreased FSH basal serum concentrations. Ovariectomy at metestrus (0800 h) increased serum levels of both gonadotropins in controls and reversed the RU486-induced dissociation of basal gonadotropin secretion. RU486-dissociated gonadotropin secretion is also dependent upon LHRH, since treatment (s.c.) with 1 mg GnRH antagonist (ORG 30276) twice a day on metestrus and diestrus completely prevented both the RU486-induced increase in LH and the decrease in FSH serum concentrations. The LHRH content in the medial basal hypothalamus and median eminence increased on proestrous morning in RU486-treated rats. The LH pituitary response to an exogenous i.v. bolus of 25 ng LHRH (Peninsula 7201; Peninsula Laboratory, Inc., Merseyside, UK) at 1700 h on diestrus was enhanced in rats treated with RU486. No differences in pituitary FSH response were noted with respect to oil-injected rats. The pituitary content of both gonadotropins decreased in RU486-treated rats on proestrous morning. All these effects due to RU486 in cyclic rats were reversed by ovariectomy. Testosterone serum levels increased significantly from diestrus onward, and the estradiol concentration increased on proestrous morning in RU486-treated rats. Ovariectomy as well as LHRH antagonist treatment eliminated the effects of RU486 on ovarian steroid production. Moreover, antiestrogen tamoxifen treatment reversed RU486-dissociated gonadotropin secretion, while antiandrogen flutamide treatment had no effect. The results of this experiment have confirmed previous findings that RU486 treatment dissociates basal gonadotropin secretion in cyclic rats. In addition, the present results show that: (1) this effect of RU486 is not due to a direct effect of this compound or to the blockade of progesterone action at a central level; (2) the effect of RU486 on pituitary gonadotropin secretion depends on ovarian substances other than progesterone and LHRH, since it is reversed by ovariectomy and completely abolished by LHRH antagonist treatment; (3) the reduction in FSH serum levels in rats treated with RU486 seems to be exerted by inhibin and estradiol at the pituitary level by reducing FSH synthesis and secretion; and (4) the hypersecretion of LH in rats treated with RU486, as compared to that resulting from ovariectomy, seems to be the consequence of, first, a lack of progesterone inhibitory action on LH secretion, and, second, an inappropriate feedback system involving increased hypothalamic LHRH activity and pituitary sensitivity to LHRH of moderately high levels of estradiol in the presence of abnormally high levels of testosterone." @default.
