Abstract:
:It is known that follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and insulin stimulate estradiol secretion from cultured non-luteinizing granulosa cells. The interaction between these hormones is less well understood. Granulosa cells from small (2-4 mm) bovine follicles were cultured in serum-free medium to determine if cytochrome P450 aromatase activity is regulated by FSH in the presence of different concentrations of insulin. Insulin significantly stimulated aromatase activity in the absence of FSH. There was a significant interaction between insulin and FSH on aromatase activity, such that FSH stimulated activity at low (0.5, 1 and 10 ng/ml) doses of insulin, whereas at higher (100 ng/ml) doses of insulin FSH failed to stimulate aromatase activity. To determine if the lack of a response to FSH with higher doses of insulin is related to gene expression, the effect of FSH on P450 aromatase mRNA levels was measured. An 'uncoupling' of mRNA and enzyme activity was observed for cells cultured with 100 ng/ml insulin, as FSH significantly increased P450 aromatase mRNA abundance without affecting estradiol secretion or aromatase activity. We conclude that in the presence of high doses of insulin, FSH decreases aromatase activity, and an uncoupling of P450 aromatase mRNA and aromatase activity occurs. This may have implications for infertility treatments when there is a risk of hyperinsulinemia.
