A Suppression of Gonadotropin Secretion by Cortisol in Castrated Male Rhesus Monkeys (Macaca Mulatta) Mediated by the Interruption of Hypothalamic Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone Release1
Abstract
Four orchidectomized rhesus monkeys (3-3.5 yr of age) were treated for 62 days with daily i.m. injections of hydrocortisone acetate (HCA) at a dose of 10-20 mg/(kg BW X day), and blood samples were obtained daily or every other day before, during, and after treatment. Hydrocortisone acetate injections resulted in a progressive rise in mean plasma cortisol from basal concentrations of 17-35 micrograms/100 ml prior to initiation of steroid treatment to approximately 150 micrograms/100 ml 5 wk later. When serum cortisol concentrations reached 100 micrograms/100 ml, 3-4 wk after the initiation of HCA treatment, circulating luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) began to decline, reaching nondetectable concentrations 35 days later. Withdrawal of HCA resulted in a return in plasma cortisol concentrations to pretreatment control levels, which was associated with a complete restoration of gonadotropin secretion. In 2 animals, administration of an intermittent i.v. infusion of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) (0.1 micrograms/min for 3 min once every hour), which appears to stimulate the gonadotropes in a physiologic manner, reversed the cortisol-induced inhibition of gonadotropin secretion, restoring circulating LH and FSH concentrations to within 80-100% of control. These results suggest that, in the rhesus monkey, the major site of the inhibitory action of cortisol on gonadotropin release resides at a suprapituitary level and is mediated by interruption of hypothalamic GnRH release.

In vertebrate models, stress-induced glucocorticoids repress the HPG axis by inhibiting GnRH neurons or stimulating neurons releasing GnIH.
“In vertebrate models, stress-induced glucocorticoids repress the HPG axis by inhibiting GnRH neurons or stimulating neurons releasing gonadotropin-inhibitory hormone (GnIH) [89–91].”

Cortisol has been shown to inhibit gonadotropin secretion directly in vitro and indirectly in vivo, as determined by the ability of i.v. GnRH to restore normal gonadotropin secretion in hypogonadotropic, hydrocortisone-treated animals.

Cortisol acts directly on the hypothalamus to suppress GnRH secretion.
“This finding suggests that cortisol acts directly on the hypothalamus to suppress GnRH secretion and is in agreement with other reports suggesting a suprapituitary site of action for cortisol [21].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
