“…We have earlier shown the involvement of SOD in luteal steroidogenesis and its induction by LH (3). The role of SOD in steroidogenesis has been corroborated by other workers (18,9,10). hCG/eCG have both been shown to cause expression of SOD (19,11).…”

“…It is intriguing that Okada et al (1995) have associated MnSOD with the tubulovesicular conformation of mitochondria characteristic of the zonae fasciculata/reticularis in the rat, and we have argued that this morphology is associated, not only with the production of corticosterone, but also with the generally high level of steroidogenesis in these cells (Vinson 2004). All this suggests that MnSOD has a highly specific function in the regulation of fasciculata function and glucocorticoid secretion by corticotrophin.…”

“…Mitochondrial MnSOD activity in glomerulosa fractions was not significantly affected by any of the treatments. Yet another interpretation arises from the work of Okada et al (1995), who have postulated a key role for peroxidase-ascorbate reaction in the generation of progesterone from pregnenolone. The hydrogen peroxide generated by MnSOD in the mitochondrial matrix is believed to pass through the mitochondrial membrane and may be used to oxidise ascorbic acid to ascorbyl radicals.…”
