Anti-Müllerian hormone concentration measured before gonadotropin stimulation is associated with quality of subsequent ovarian response in the cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus) and domestic cat (Felis catus)†.
Relationships between anti-Müllerian hormone concentrations and subsequent ovarian stimulation outcomes have been demonstrated in several mammalian species, but comprehensive reports are lacking in felids. Our objective was to characterize relationships between anti-Müllerian hormone concentrations and responses to exogenous gonadotropin stimulation in cheetahs and domestic cats. Blood samples collected before stimulation were used to measure serum anti-Müllerian hormone concentrations, which were compared to post-stimulation outcomes, including counts of retrievable oocytes or ovulation sites, oocyte quality, embryonic cleavage after in vitro fertilization, and progestogen concentrations. Anti-Müllerian hormone concentrations were also compared to outcomes in domestic cats induced to ovulate by mechanical stimulation of the vagina and cervix (simulated coitus). Greater anti-Müllerian hormone concentrations were associated with greater ovulatory response, progestogen production, and embryonic cleavage success among gonadotropin-treated cheetahs, and with greater ovulatory response among gonadotropin-treated domestic cats. Associations were moderated by age, with anti-Müllerian hormone concentration generally a greater determinant of these outcomes in older animals. Anti-Müllerian hormone concentrations alone could distinguish domestic cats with high and low ovulatory responses to exogenous hormones. However, this marker was unrelated to ovulatory response in domestic cats after simulated coitus. These results demonstrate the potential for anti-Müllerian hormone concentrations to predict responses of cheetahs and domestic cats to ovarian stimulation treatment commonly used in assisted reproductive technologies. Associations between anti-Müllerian hormone concentrations and ovarian stimulation outcomes in these species might reflect relationships between anti-Müllerian hormone concentration and antral follicle count or oocyte/embryo cellular function, as reported in other mammals; however, this remains to be tested.
