The analyses for E 2 , free E 2 , E 1 , E 1 S, progesterone, SHBG, follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), and LH were conducted in 2 batches.
We demonstrate for the first time not only that delayed rectifier K +channels play a significant role in GC volume regulation, but also that voltage and/or volume-sensitive Cl -channels modulate GC membrane potential and progesterone production.
The decreased progesterone concentrations in the media of drug-treated cultures did not reflect significant differences in the number of viable cells under these culture conditions, (Figure 2A).
StAR plays a key role in the initial steps of steroidogenesis, because it is required for transport of cholesterol to the inner mitochondrial membrane where CYP11A1 resides and the first reaction in progesterone synthesis occurs [ 45 ] . cAMP is a well known second messenger in FSH- and LH-stimulated progesterone synthesis, and a key effect of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase in GC is transcriptional control of StAR [ 46 47 ] . Estradiol is recognized as a biological amplifier of basal, FSH- and cAMP-stimulated progesterone production in pig GC, with significant synergistic effects distal to the generation of cAMP at one or more steps in cholesterol transport and metabolism [ 48 ] . Our experimental results are thus consistent with 4-AP inhibition of GC progesterone output via drug effects on multiple interacting sites in the steroidogenic pathway.
Thus, it is conceivable that the cycle-specific expression of FS within the CL may control the level of progesterone production through anti-BMP mechanisms.
