项目摘要

Granulosa cells of follicles in avian species, such as chicken and Japanese quail, . proliferate during follicular growth, and differentiate to secrete progesterone in response to luteinizing hormone (LH), when the follicle becomes the largest and reaches to the time of ovulation. In order to study the mechanism and signal transduction pathway of growth and differentiation, quail granulosa cells were cultured with various gonadotrophins or growth factors, such as epidermal growth factor (EGF).The culture medium was a mixture of McCoy's 5a and Ham's F12 (1 : 1) supplemented with glutamine, HEPES,Penicilline and Streptomycin. The concentration of fetal calf serum was 10% during the initial 6 hr of the culture, and then it was reduced to 1%. In order to evaluate the LH response of the cells after the culture, the cells were incubated with or without LH for 3 hr in Krebs-Ringer solution supplemented with bovine serum albumin, and progesterone production was measured in the medium during this 3 hr of incubation by the specific radio immunoassay.When the granulosa cells were cultured with follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) for 72 hr, the response to LH was increased while the cell numbers were not significantly increased. When the granulosa cells were cultured with EGF for 72 hr, the cell numbers increased dramatically, but the LH response of the cells, which was evaluated by the production of progesterone, was diminished. These results suggested that the growth and differentiation of the granulosa cells during follicular maturation was controlled by both FSH and EGF.

禽类中卵泡的颗粒细胞，例如鸡肉和日本鹌鹑。在卵泡生长过程中增殖，并在卵泡变为最大并达到排卵时与叶酸激素（LH）分泌孕酮。为了研究生长和分化的机制和信号转导途径，用各种促性腺营养蛋白或生长因子（例如表皮生长因子（EGF））培养鹌鹑颗粒细胞（EGF）。培养基是McCoy's 5A和Ham's F12（1：1）的混合物，并补充了谷氨酰胺，Hepycome，Hepycy，STROMPYCILLINE，Stropticline。在培养的最初6小时期间，胎儿小腿血清的浓度为10％，然后将其降低至1％。 In order to evaluate the LH response of the cells after the culture, the cells were incubated with or without LH for 3 hr in Krebs-Ringer solution supplemented with bovine serum albumin, and progesterone production was measured in the medium during this 3 hr of incubation by the specific radio immunoassay.When the granulosa cells were cultured with follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) for 72 hr, the response to LH was在细胞数量没有显着增加的同时增加。当用EGF培养颗粒细胞72小时时，细胞数急剧增加，但是通过孕酮的产生评估的细胞的LH反应减少了。这些结果表明，卵泡成熟过程中颗粒细胞的生长和分化均由FSH和EGF控制。
