Abstract:
:Exposure to estrogen during the developmental period causes reproductive dysfunction in mammals, because the developing brain is highly sensitive to estrogens. In the present study, we report that long-term exposure to supraphysiological doses of estrogen during the neonatal critical period causes irreversible suppression of Kiss1/kisspeptin expression in the arcuate nucleus (ARC) via estrogen receptor-alpha (ERα) and ERβ, resulting in reproductive dysfunction in female rats. Daily estradiol-benzoate (EB) administration from days 0 to 10 postpartum caused persistent vaginal diestrus in female rats. The female rats showed profound suppression of pulsatile luteinizing hormone (LH) release and ARC Kiss1/kisspeptin expression even after ovariectomy at adulthood. In contrast, female rats treated with a single EB injection at day 5 postpartum exhibited persistent vaginal estrus and showed comparable LH pulses and numbers of ARC Kiss1-expressing cells to vehicle-treated controls after ovariectomy at adulthood. Because the LH secretory response to exogenous kisspeptin was spared in female rats with neonatal long-term estrogen exposure, the LH pulse suppression was most probably due to ARC kisspeptin deficiency. Furthermore, neonatal estrogen might act through both ERα and ERβ, because EB exposure significantly reduced the number of ARC Kiss1-expressing cells in wild-type mice but not in ERα or ERβ knockout mice. Taken together, long-term exposure to supraphysiological doses of estrogen in the developing brain might cause defects in ARC kisspeptin neurons via ERα and ERβ, resulting in inhibition of pulsatile LH release and lack of estrous cyclicity.
