The aim of the present study was to examine possible involvement of cAMP-dependent intracellular mechanisms in control of ovarian cell steroidogenesis and its response to hormonal regulators. For this purpose, we examined the influence of administration of dbcAMP, a cAMP analogue (50 mu g/animal) in vivo, on release of progesterone, testosterone and estradiol by isolated ovarian fragments, as well their response to hormonal regulators of ovarian steroidogenesis-FSH, IGF-I and ghrelin (all added at doses of 100 ng/ml). It was observed, that administration of dbcAMP resulted reduction in progesterone and testosterone, but not of estradiol release by isolated ovarian fragments. In ovarian tissue isolated from control animals, additions of hormones were able to reduce release of progesterone (FSH. IGF-I and ghrelin) and increase release of testosterone (ghrelin) but did not change estradiol output. Previous administration of dbcAMP modified action of exogenous hormones: it inverted inhibitory action of FSH, IGF-I and ghrelin on progesterone release to stimulatory action and induced stimulatory action of IGF-I on testosterone release and stimulatory effect of FSH on estradiol output. The present observations confirm involvement of peptide hormones FSH, IGF-I and ghrelin in the control of rabbit ovarian steroid hormones release and demonstrate the involvement of cAMP-dependent intracellular mechanisms in down-regulation of rabbit ovarian steroidogenesis and in modification, but not in mediating effect of FSH. IGF-I and ghrelin on ovarian steroid hormones release. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved
