Differential Regulation of Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone Neuron Activity and Membrane Properties by Acutely Applied Estradiol: Dependence on Dose and Estrogen Receptor Subtype

Open access

Abstract

Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) neurons are critical to controlling fertility.In vivo, estradiol can inhibit or stimulate GnRH release depending on concentration and physiological state. We examined rapid, nongenomic effects of estradiol. Whole-cell recordings were made of GnRH neurons in brain slices from ovariectomized mice with ionotropic GABA and glutamate receptors blocked. Estradiol was bath applied and measurements completed within 15 min. Estradiol from high physiological (preovulatory) concentrations (100 p m) to 100 n m enhanced action potential firing, reduced afterhyperpolarizing potential (AHP) and increased slow afterdepolarization amplitudes (ADP), and reduced IAHP and enhanced IADP. The reduction of IAHP was occluded by previous blockade of calcium-activated potassium channels. These effects were mimicked by an estrogen receptor (ER) β-specific agonist and were blocked by the classical receptor antagonist ICI182780. ERα or GPR30 agonists had no effect. The acute stimulatory effect of high physiological estradiol on firing rate was dependent on signaling via protein kinase A. In contrast, low physiological levels of estradiol (10 p m) did not affect intrinsic properties. Without blockade of ionotropic GABA and glutamate receptors, however, 10 p m estradiol reduced firing of GnRH neurons; this was mimicked by an ERα agonist. ERα agonists reduced the frequency of GABA transmission to GnRH neurons; GABA can excite to these cells. In contrast, ERβ agonists increased GABA transmission and postsynaptic response. These data suggest rapid intrinsic and network modulation of GnRH neurons by estradiol is dependent on both dose and receptor subtype. In cooperation with genomic actions, nongenomic effects may play a role in feedback regulation of GnRH secretion.

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.
