To test this hypothesis, the effects of 4-AP on membrane potential were examined using GC incubated in either media modified to contain the chloride channel antagonist DIDS, or a physiological buffer solution modified to contain a low (8 mM) concentration of chloride.
Interestingly, concomitant exposure to DIDS prevented 4-AP from diminishing the accumulation of progesterone in GC culture media (Figure 8C), suggesting that chloride influx, membrane hyperpolarization or both might mediate this effect of 4-AP.
The observed effects of Cl -channel antagonists differ significantly between the present study where DIDS prevented 4-AP from decreasing progesterone synthesis and previous investigations where DIDS and other Cl -channel antagonists prevented LH from enhancing progesterone production [ 29 35 56 ] . However, this discrepancy is expected, because DIDS antagonizes a chloride influx pathway in pig GC, and chloride efflux pathways in Leydig cells.
Exposure to DIDS alone significantly decreased (depolarized) GC resting membrane potential (Figure 8B), suggesting that an outward chloride current (chloride influx) contributes to the normal resting potential of pig GC.
