AB  - Simultaneous knockout of the neuroendocrine marker genes Ptprn and Ptprn2, which 
encode the protein tyrosine phosphatase receptors N and N2, respectively, causes 
infertility of female mice while males are fertile. To clarify the mechanism of sex specific roles of Ptprn and Ptprn2 in mice reproduction, we analyzed the effects of 
their double knockout (DKO) on the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis. In DKO 
females, a delay in puberty and lack of ovulation were observed, supplemented by 
changes in ovarian gene expression and steroidogenesis. In DKO males, the testicular 
gene expression, steroidogenesis, and development of reproductive organs were not 
affected. However, in both sexes, pituitary luteinizing hormone (LH) beta gene
expression and LH levels were reduced, while the calcium-mobilizing and LH 
secretory actions of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) receptors were 
preserved. The expression of hypothalamic Gnrh1 and Kiss1 genes were also reduced 
in DKO females and males. The density of immunoreactive GnRH fibers was 
decreased in the median eminence in DKO females and males. The density of 
immunoreactive kisspeptin fibers was also decreased in the rostral periventricular 
region of the third ventricle of females and in the arcuate nucleus of females and 
males. Therefore, infertility in DKO females cannot be explained only by sex-specific 
gonadotroph impairment. Instead, changes in hypothalamic gene expression, 
specifically Kiss1 in the rostral periventricular region of the third ventricle, might 
provide an alternative hypothesis due to its sexual dimorphism and involvement in 
puberty onset and ovulation.

In DKO females, delayed puberty and lack of ovulation were observed, complemented by changes in ovarian gene expression and steroidogenesis. In contrast, testicular gene expression, steroidogenesis, and reproductive organs development were not significantly affected in DKO males. However, in both sexes, pituitary luteinizing hormone (LH) beta gene expression and LH levels were reduced, as well as follicle-stimulating hormone beta gene and gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) gene, while the calcium-mobilizing and LH secretory actions of GnRH were preserved. Hypothalamic Gnrh1 and Kiss1 gene expression was also reduced in DKO females and males. In parallel, a significant decrease in the density of immunoreactive GnRH and kisspeptin fibers was detected in the hypothalamic arcuate nucleus of DKO females and males. The female-specific kisspeptin immunoreactivity in the rostral periventricular region of the third ventricle was also reduced in DKO females, but not in DKO males. These data indicate a critical role of Ptprn and Ptprn2 in kisspeptin-GnRH neuronal function and sexual dimorphism in the threshold levels of GnRH required to preserve reproductive functions.

AB  - Pituitary gonadotrophs play a key role in reproductive functions by secreting luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). The LH secretory activity of gonadotroph is controlled by hypothalamic gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) via GnRH receptors and is accompanied by only minor effects on high basal Lhb gene expression. The secretory profiles of GnRH and LH are highly synchronized, with the latter reflecting a depletion of prestored LH in secretory vesicles by regulated exocytosis. In contrast, FSH is predominantly released by constitutive exocytosis, and secretory activity reflects the kinetics of Fshb gene expression controlled by GnRH, activin, and inhibin. Here is a review of recent data to improve the understanding of multiple patterns of gonadotroph gene expression and hormone secretion.
