Efeitos da progesterona exógena sobre o desenvolvimento folicular em ovelhas

Abstract: RESUMOAvaliaram-se os efeitos da progesterona (P 4 ) sobre o crescimento folicular e na endocrinologia reprodutiva em ovelhas Bergamácia. Quatorze ovelhas sincronizadas com prostaglandinas (PGF 2 ) foram distribuídas em dois grupos (n=7/grupo): grupo-controle e grupo tratado com progesterona (CIDR) depois da ovulação (dia zero). Desde o dia anterior à aplicação de PG até o dia 10, realizaram-se monitoramentos ultra-sonográficos para estabelecer o crescimento folicular. Amostras de sangue foram colhidas para a … Show more

“…Considering that plasma progesterone levels higher than 3 ng/mL characterize the gestation phase (39) , the ewes in group I reached these levels by the 12 th day after mating, while those of group II by the 9 th day and those who received the highest level of added protein by the 6 th day. This behavior does not exclude the influence of exogenous progesterone, as in the case during the synchronization of estrus (40) . However, considering that the corpus luteum is an original structure of the remaining cells of the ovulatory follicle, it is possible that their presence had occurred primarily in those females supplemented with the highest levels of protein, probably in response to the increased proliferation of granulosa cells of the ovulatory follicle.…”

“…Os níveis de P 4 exercem influência na dinâmica folicular, evidenciando que ondas desenvolvidas sob elevada e contínua concentração deste hormônio apresentam folículos dominantes com tamanho menor que aqueles pertencentes a ondas desenvolvidas sob baixos níveis de P 4 (GINTHER; KOT, 1994). Altas concentrações de P 4 podem inibir o crescimento do folículo dominante (URIBE-VELÁSQUEZ et al, 2008b), visto que a P 4 exerce um feedback negativo no eixo hipotálamo-hipófise decrescendo a frequência dos pulsos de LH (LEYVA et al, 1998).…”
