Disease relevance of Luteinization

  • Studies of ovarian histopathology in 26 transsexual subjects after long term androgen treatment revealed multiple cystic follicles in 18 subjects (69.2%), diffuse ovarian stromal hyperplasia in 21 subjects (80.8%), collagenization of the tunica albuginea in 25 subjects (96.2%), and luteinization of stromal cells in 7 subjects (26.9%) [1].
  • We speculate that ET-1, possibly of intraovarian origin, acts as a luteinization-inhibitor to suppress premature luteinization at a time when continued preovulatory expression of ET-1 (in the intact but not ruptured follicle) may be contingent upon relative intrafollicular hypoxia [2].
  • OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of induced endogenous hyperprolactinemia on the luteinization process, as expressed by the shift in the P:E2 ratio after hCG injection in IVF cycles [3].
  • The GnRH-induced LH surge appears to stimulate luteinization of the ovarian cyst wall [4].
  • Thus, a large follicle anovulatory condition, similar to follicular cysts, can be induced by estradiol induction of a GnRH/LH surge in the absence of subsequent luteinization, and this condition prevents a GnRH/LH surge in response to high doses of estradiol [5].

Biological context of Luteinization

 

Anatomical context of Luteinization

  • Furthermore, when PO + hCG (7 h) follicles were isolated and incubated for 1-3 h with reversible inhibitors of transcription (actinomycin-D) or translation (cycloheximide) before harvesting the granulosa cells, neither morphological nor functional luteinization of granulosa cells in culture was impaired [16].
  • Morphological examination of the ovary of PDE4D-/- mice indicated luteinization of antral follicles with entrapped oocytes [17].
  • The correlation between follicular fluid steroid and PP12 levels and the findings by immunoperoxidase staining suggest that PP12 is related to endocrine phenomena of the ovary, possibly to the luteinization process [18].
  • In the menstrual and pregnant CL, ECE-1 was highly expressed on both large and small luteal cells, indicating that ECE-1 expression increases during luteinization [19].
  • RNA isolated from ovaries with follicles at the preantral, preovulatory stage and from corpora lutea contained decreased tropomyosin mRNA levels during ovarian luteinization when the level of RNA for a key steroidogenic enzyme, cytochrome P-450 cholesterol side chain cleavage (P-450 scc), increased [20].
 

Associations of Luteinization with chemical compounds

  • The observed STC1 suppression of progesterone, but not estradiol, production further suggests the potential role of this paracrine hormone as a luteinization inhibitor [21].
  • Hormonal regulation of luteinizing hormone/chorionic gonadotropin receptor mRNA in rat ovarian cells during follicular development and luteinization [22].
  • The interactions of peptide and steroid hormone signaling cascades in the ovary are critical for follicular growth, ovulation, and luteinization [23].
  • Thus, acute elevation of serum androgen/estrogen ratios in vivo during follicular maturation was detrimental to the gametogenic functions of the primate follicle, but did not alter follicular growth, events of early luteinization, or subsequent luteal function.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)[24]
  • The results of this exploratory study provide evidence that mifepristone is effective for the prevention of premature LH surges and/or premature luteinization in women undergoing COH for in vitro fertilization [25].
 

Gene context of Luteinization

  • Rather PRL activation of Stat5, principally Stat5b, occurred in association with luteinization [26].
  • These features result in a failure of the normal maturational events leading to successful ovulation and luteinization and presumably involve both hypothalamic-pituitary and intraovarian mechanisms dependent upon ER alpha action [27].
  • In these rats, luteinization occurred spontaneously without cervical stimulation, probably due to high levels of serum hGH, which has prolactin (PRL)-like activity in the rat [28].
  • Time-course experiments showed that only 2 days of forskolin treatment could induce PKC-responsiveness of the Cox-2 promoter, although maximal responsiveness was not observed until 10 days of luteinization [29].
  • Following a hCG stimulus, MMP-2 mRNA increased as the granulosa cells of preovulatory follicles underwent luteinization during formation of the corpus luteum (CL) [30].
