The modulating effect of vitellogenin on the synthesis of 17β-estradiol by rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) ovary
Tóm tắt
In vivo induction of vitellogenin (VTG) in response to the administration of 17β-estradiol (E2) was achieved and the protein was isolated by gel filtration column chromatography of plasma samples. Adult female trout were injected with the vitellogenic fraction every ten days from July to November and levels were measured by RIA from September to December. The results showed a significant decrease (p<0.01) in plasma E2 levels in injected females compared with the controls. In December, after finishing the treatment, the plasma E2 concentration increased, in injected females to reach a level similar to that of control females at vitellogenesis. The in vitro study showed that in early vitellogenic oocyte (from September) the presence of the vitellogenic fraction in the incubation medium causes a significant decrease (p<0.01) in the synthesis of E2 by the oocytes. These data suggest that the concentration of the VTG into the oocyte can alter VTG production by the liver, moderating the production of E2 by the ovary.
