SummaryWe have previously described the cloning, sequencing and in vitro expression of a full-length rainbow trout estrogen receptor cDNA (rtER cDNA). This full cDNA randomly labelled was used to study the estrogen induction of hepatic rtER mRNA in correlation with vitellogenin (Vg) mRNA in different physiolo~cal situations.In this paper, we show that in the liver two mRNA species are under hormonal control and their level increases about g-fold after estrogen stimulation.These two mRNAs are expressed and induced in the liver as early as the hatching stage in correlation with the expression of Vg mRNA. A long-term analysis of rtER mRNA after estradiol (E2) injection shows a transient induction of the nuclear ER and its mRNA which recover to the basal level after 2 weeks. Nevertheless, a memory effect was observed on the expression of the Vg gene which does not appear to be directly related to the estrogen receptor level.

ABSTRACT.Purpose: Previous research has demonstrated that sex steroids exert a significant influence on the structure and function of numerous ocular tissues. To begin to explore the underlying basis of this hormone action, we examined whether various anterior and posterior tissues of the eye contain androgen, estrogen and progesterone receptor mRNAs. Methods: Tissue samples were obtained from adult male and female rats, rabbits and humans, processed for the isolation of total RNA and analyzed by RT-PCR, agarose gel electrophoresis and Southern blot hybridization. All PCR amplifications included positive and negative controls. Results: Our findings showed that androgen, estrogen and/or progesterone receptor mRNAs are present in the lacrimal gland, lacrimal gland acinar epithelial cells, meibomian gland, lid, palpebral and bulbar conjunctivae, cornea, iris/ciliary body, lens, retina/uvea, retina/choroid and retinal pigment epithelial cells of rats, rabbits or humans.Conclusions: Our findings demonstrate that sex steroid receptor mRNAs exist in a variety of ocular tissues and suggest that these sites may represent target organs for androgens, estrogens and/or progestins.

“…This period, so-called window of implantation, lasts for 5 days starting on day 20 (day LH C7-11) of a 28-days menstrual cycle (Navot et al 1991, Wilcox et al 1999. On target cells, P 4 exerts its effects primarily through the nuclear P 4 receptor (PGR) (Tsai & O'Malley 1994), a member of the superfamily of ligand-activated transcription factors (Misrahi et al 1987). PGR is a ligand activated transcription factor (Chabbert-Buffet et al 2005) which upon P 4 binding activates its gene regulatory functions (Graham & Clarke 1997).…”

Effect of single post-ovulatory administration of mifepristone (RU486) on transcript profile during the receptive period in human endometrium

Progesterone regulates uterine function during the luteal phase and is essential for the acquisition of endometrial receptivity. The objective of the present study was to identify endometrial transcripts whose expression is altered during the window of implantation after the administration of 200 mg of the antiprogestin mifepristone, 48 h after the LH peak (LHC2, LHC0ZLH peak), and to determine the relationship of these transcripts with those regulated during the acquisition of receptivity. Endometrial samples were obtained in LHC7 from seven women of proven fertility, each one contributing with one cycle treated with placebo and another with mifepristone. Additionally, endometrial samples were obtained in LHC2 and LHC7 during a single untreated spontaneous cycle from seven normal fertile women as a reference. DNA microarrays were used to identify transcripts significantly regulated (defined as R2.0-fold change with false discovery rate below 1% using t-test) with the administration of mifepristone vs placebo, or during the transition from pre-receptive to receptive (LHC2 vs LHC7). Approximately 2000 transcripts were significantly regulated in both comparisons (mifepristone vs placebo and LHC2 vs LHC7), but only 777 of them were coincident and displayed opposite regulation except for 25. The mRNA level for eight selected genes regulated by mifepristone was confirmed by real-time RT-PCR. We conclude that not all changes in endometrial transcript levels occurring in the transition from LHC2 to LHC7 seem to be regulated by the progesterone receptor and w37% of the genes whose transcript levels changed by effect of mifepristone could be associated with the acquisition of receptivity.
