    Inhibin, a gonadal hormone, regulates FSH secretion and influences female folliculogenesis. Ovarian peptides like gonadocrinins also modulate reproductive processes, offering potential therapeutic targets for contraception and sterility.

    Area of Science:

    • Reproductive Endocrinology
    • Molecular Endocrinology
    • Hormone Biology

    Background:

    • Inhibin is a key gonadal peptide hormone primarily regulating Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH) secretion and synthesis.
    • Current research relies on bioassays due to the incomplete purification of inhibin, with secretion influenced by androgens and FSH.
    • Inhibin plays a crucial role in controlling folliculogenesis in women through FSH fluctuations.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To explore the role of inhibin and other ovarian peptides in reproductive processes.
    • To investigate the mechanisms of folliculogenesis and luteolysis.
    • To identify potential therapeutic targets for contraception and sterility.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized bioassays with testicular extracts and follicular fluid to study inhibin.

  • Investigated the secretion patterns of inhibin by granulosa and Sertoli cells.
  • Identified and characterized five ovarian peptidic substances (cybernins) modulating gonadotropin effects.

    • Main Results:

    • Inhibin preferentially suppresses FSH secretion and synthesis.
    • Granulosa and Sertoli cells secrete inhibin spontaneously and in response to androgens and FSH.
    • Five ovarian peptides were identified: oocyte maturation inhibitor, luteinization inhibitor, FSH binding inhibitor, LH receptor binding inhibitor, and gonadocrinins.

    Conclusions:

    • Inhibin and ovarian peptides significantly influence folliculogenesis and luteolysis.
    • These discoveries offer new conceptual frameworks for understanding ovarian function.
    • The identified peptides present potential therapeutic avenues for contraception and sterility treatment.
