Hypothalamic effects of progesterone on regulation of the pulsatile and surge release of luteinising hormone in female rats

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Progesterone can block the oestradiol-induced GnRH/LH surge and inhibit LH pulse frequency. Recent studies reported that progesterone prevented premature LH surges during ovarian hyperstimulation in women. As the most potent stimulator of GnRH/LH release,

Progesterone Regulation of the Progesterone Receptor in Rat Gonadotropes* [PDF]

open access: yesEndocrinology, 2000
For rat pituitary cells, progesterone receptor (PR) protein localizes to gonadotropes and PR messenger RNA is induced by E2 and rapidly but transiently down-regulated by progesterone. Here we quantitatively establish the down-regulatory effect of progesterone on PR protein and evaluate possible mechanisms.

Effects of Levonorgestrel and progesterone on Oviductal physiology in mammals

open access: yesReproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2018
Background Our previous study indicated that emergency contraception, including levonorgestrel and progesterone, could lead to ectopic pregnancy following contraception failure. However, our understanding of the effects of levonorgestrel and progesterone

Progesterone Enhances the Invasion of Trophoblast Cells by Activating PI3K/AKT Signaling Pathway to Prevent Preeclampsia

open access: yesCell Transplantation, 2023
We aimed to explore whether the effect of progesterone on preeclampsia via the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. First, we studied the role of progesterone in preeclampsia patients and HTR-8/Svneo cells by adding progesterone.

Progesterone receptors, their isoforms and progesterone regulated transcription [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular and Cellular Endocrinology, 2012
This review discusses mechanisms by which progesterone receptors (PR) regulate transcription. We examine available data in different species and tissues regarding: (1) regulation of PR levels; and (2) expression profiling of progestin-regulated genes by total PRs, or their PRA and PRB isoforms.

Top quality blastocyst formation rates in relation to progesterone levels on the day of oocyte maturation in GnRH antagonist IVF/ICSI cycles

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Cycles with progesterone elevation during controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) for IVF/ICSI are commonly managed with a “freeze-all” strategy, due to a well-recognized detrimental effect of high progesterone levels on endometrial receptivity.
