Abstract

The neural components underlying the influence of photoperiod upon reproductive functioning are poorly understood. In this study, we have used immunocytochemistry to examine whether changes in photoperiod may influence specific neuronal cell populations implicated in mediating gonadal steroid feedback actions on GnRH neurons. Short day (SD) exposed ewes in the midluteal stage of the estrous cycle and long day (LD) anestrous ewes were perfused in pairs and hypothalamic brain sections immunostained for tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), neuropeptide Y (NPY), beta-endorphin (betaE), and the estrogen receptor (ER). The number of ER-immunoreactive cells detected within the preoptic area, but not the hypothalamus, was approximately 20% higher (P < 0.05) in LD ewes compared with SD animals. The numbers of TH-immunoreactive neurons comprising the A12, A14, and A15 cell groups were not different between LD and SD ewes, and the percentage of A12 (approximately 15%) and A14 (approximately 25%) neurons expressing ERs was similarly unaffected by photoperiod. The number of betaE neurons detected in the arcuate nucleus was 50% lower (P < 0.05) in SD vs. LD ewes, whereas NPY-immunoreactive cell numbers in the median eminence were 300% higher (P < 0.05). Approximately 3% of NPY neurons in the median eminence, and 10% in the arcuate nucleus, expressed ER immunoreactivity in a photoperiod-independent manner. These studies indicate that changes in photoperiod may regulate ER expression within the preoptic area and suggest that hypothalamic NPY and betaE neurons are involved in the seasonal regulation of reproductive activity in the ewe.

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.
