Effect of Bone Morphogenetic Protein-7 on Folliculogenesis and Ovulation in the Rat
We have previously established the presence of a functional bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) system in the ovary by demonstrating the expression of BMP ligands and receptors as well as novel cellular functions. Specifically, BMP-4 and BMP-7 are expressed in theca cells, and their receptors by granul...

description | We have previously established the presence of a functional bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) system in the ovary by demonstrating
the expression of BMP ligands and receptors as well as novel cellular functions. Specifically, BMP-4 and BMP-7 are expressed
in theca cells, and their receptors by granulosa cells. These BMPs enhanced and attenuated the stimulatory action of FSH on
estradiol and progesterone production, respectively. To investigate the underlying mechanism of the differential regulation,
we analyzed mRNA levels for key regulators in the steroid biosynthetic pathways by RNase protection assay. BMP-7 enhanced
P450 aromatase (P450 arom ) but suppressed steroidogenic acute regulatory protein (StAR) mRNAs induced by FSH, whereas mRNAs encoding further-downstream
steroidogenic enzymes, including P450 side-chain cleavage enzyme and 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase, were not significantly
altered. These findings suggest that BMP-7 stimulation and inhibition of P450 arom and StAR mRNA expression, respectively, may play a role in the mechanisms underlying the differential regulation of estradiol
and progesterone production. To establish the physiological relevance of BMP functions, we investigated the in vivo effects
of injections of recombinant BMP-7 into the ovarian bursa of rats. Ovaries treated with BMP-7 had decreased numbers of primordial
follicles, yet had increased numbers of primary, preantral, and antral follicles, suggesting that BMP-7 may act to facilitate
the transition of follicles from the primordial stage to the pool of primary, preantral, and antral follicles. In this regard,
we have also found that BMP-7 caused an increase in DNA synthesis and proliferation of granulosa cells from small antral follicles
in vitro. In contrast to the stimulatory activity, BMP-7 exhibited pronounced inhibitory effects on ovulation rate and serum
progesterone levels. These findings establish important new biological activities of BMP-7 in the context of ovarian physiology,
including folliculogenesis and ovulation. |
