We used immunofluorescence histochemistry to assess the effect of chemical castration with the GnRH antagonist degarelix on arcuate KNDy neurons in fetal sheep. Fluorescent in situ hybridization demonstrated the presence of steroid receptors in untreated midgestation fetal kisspeptin neurons. Additionally, unanesthetized cannulated midgestation fetal sheep were used to examine the effects of KNDy peptides on LH secretion and characterize receptor specificity. Treatment of male lamb fetuses with degarelix on day 62 of gestation resulted in significantly decreased plasma LH and testosterone concentrations (P < .05), accompanied by a significant increase in arcuate Kiss neurons (P < .05). In unanesthetized cannulated fetuses, bolus administration of KP-10 (a Kiss receptor agonist) and senktide (NK3 receptor agonist) elicited robust LH release within 15 minutes. Pretreatment with the NK3 receptor antagonist SB222200 blocked the LH response to senktide, whereas P271 (Kiss receptor antagonist) did not affect basal LH or block the LH response to KP-10. Blocking κ-opiate receptor with PF4455242 significantly increased LH release.

As a result, Cyp17TM-625 mice exhibited significantly elevated Cyp17A1 messenger RNA and protein levels, accompanied by increased testosterone concentrations without alterations in basal levels of estradiol, progesterone, luteinizing hormone, or follicle-stimulating hormone. These mice demonstrated subfertility, evident by smaller and fewer litters, prolonged estrous cycles, and an increased number of unhealthy follicles with abnormally shaped oocytes. Despite these marked reproductive changes, body weight and glucose homeostasis remained comparable to Con-625 mice. Notably, withdrawal of doxycycline reversed testosterone overexpression and restored fertility over time. This model recapitulates reproductive dysfunction but not the metabolic disturbances, commonly observed in exogenous androgen models.

Activation of POA glia or treatment with the gliotransmitter analog dimethyl prostaglandin E2 (dmPGE2) increased GnRH neuron firing rate, and these responses were dependent upon sex and time of day. In contrast, ARC kisspeptin neuron firing rate was unresponsive to ARC glia activation or dmPGE2 regardless of sex or time of day.

ARC glia activation had no effect on LH in females and the response in males was delayed compared to POA glia activation.

In the current study, we investigated strategies to protect ovarian function from chemotherapy-induced toxicity by evaluating the effects of cisplatin, doxorubicin, or cyclophosphamide on ovarian vasculature and primordial follicle survival. This investigation was conducted using adult CD-1, PDs 5-7 CD-1, and oocyte-specific Trp63 conditional knockout (Trp63 cKO) mice that demonstrated primordial follicles survived following chemotherapy. In control ovaries, vasculature typically surrounds primordial and primary follicles, is in the theca layer as secondary follicles develop, and is distributed among stromal cells. Our findings revealed that the expression pattern of CD31/PECAM-1 (platelet endothelial adhesion molecule-1) was significantly altered in ovaries treated with chemotherapeutic agents compared with controls. The data demonstrate that these agents not only caused the loss of ovarian follicles but also damaged the ovarian vasculature. Using Trp63 cKO mice and CK2II, an inhibitor of checkpoint kinase 2, we demonstrated that vascular damage can occur independently of primordial follicle loss, and VEGFA165 was unable to prevent either outcome. This indicates that the mechanisms governing the death of primordial follicles and vascular damage may not directly affect each other. Long-term ex vivo culture and in vivo experiments demonstrated the ability of ovarian vasculature to recover from cisplatin-induced damage.

Traditionally, spermatozoa were viewed merely as DNA carriers, with little consideration given to their role beyond fertilization. Recent research, however, is challenging this view, revealing that spermatozoa are far more than passive delivery vehicles. They carry a complex array of molecules, particularly RNAs, which actively influence fertilization, early embryo development, and the transmission of paternal traits. These sperm-carried RNAs, including mRNAs, small RNAs, and noncoding RNAs, regulate gene expression in both spermatozoa and embryo, with profound implications for offspring development. Additionally, environmental factors, such as lifestyle choices and exposure to toxins, have been shown to affect sperm RNA composition, highlighting the dynamic interplay between genetics and the environment in shaping fertility. This emerging and evolving understanding of sperm function challenges traditional reproductive biology and offers new insights into male infertility, particularly in cases that remain unexplained by current diagnostic methods. Although the exact molecular mechanisms underlying these processes are still being investigated, this paradigm shift opens the door to innovative diagnostic tools and therapeutic strategies for treating male infertility.

Previously, we established a manganese-induced precocious puberty (MnPP) model to study the effects of PP on mammary gland development in female rats. Here, we characterized the distribution of HR+ proliferating mammary epithelial cells in prepubertal and adult rodents, in association with precocious puberty. Female rats were exposed daily to 10 mg/kg manganese chloride or saline (control) from postnatal day (PND) 12 to PND 30. Mammary glands were collected on PNDs 30 and 120, processed for western blot analysis and double immunofluorescence staining for proliferating cell nuclear antigen and progesterone receptor or estrogen receptor. MnPP increased the percentage of HR+ mammary epithelial cells coexpressing proliferating cell nuclear antigen relative to normally developed controls at PND 30. This correlated with increased expression of estrogen receptor-regulated proteins in MnPP mammary glands relative to controls at PND 30, including FOXA1, AREG, and c-Myc. Conversely, at PND 120 relative to PND 30, proliferating HR+ cells remained chronically elevated in MnPP mammary glands at PND 120, which coincided with decreased expression of cell-cycle regulator, p27, and increased expression of progesterone receptor-regulated markers, EREG and sp1.
