摘要
The mechanism by which GnRH stimulates annexin A5 expression was examined with L beta T2 gonadotrope cells. Continuous stimulation with GnRH analog (GnRHa, Des-Gly10 [Pro9]-GnRH ethylamide) transiently elevated LH beta mRNA expression while maintaining annexin A5 mRNA at high levels for 24 h. GnRH antagonist blocked the effect of GnRHa on annexin A5. While 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13 acetate, a protein kinase C activator, increased the expression of annexin A5 mRNA, bisindolylmaleimide, an inhibitor of protein kinase C, suppressed GnRha-stimulated expression of annexin A5 and LH beta mRNA. GnRHa stimulation of LH beta mRNA was inhibited to a greater extent than annexin A5 by a calcium chelator BAPTA/AM. Although a calcium ionophore ionomycin stimulated the expression of both genes, only LH beta was down-regulated. The MAPK kinase inhibitor PD98059 inhibited GnRHa induction of annexin A5 but not LH beta mRNA. EGF stimulated the expression of annexin A5 mRNA but caused only a transient effect on LH beta mRNA expression. These results indicate that GnRH stimulation of signaling pathway for annexin A5 mRNA expression is distinct from that of LH beta mRNA and dependent more on MAPK.
