ABSTRACT
This study aimed to evaluate the hormonal and ovarian responses to the administration of a metastin/kisspeptin analog (TAK-683) under the endocrine environments of luteal and follicular phases in goats. Five estrous cycling goats received a prostaglandin F2α injection followed by 10 days of progesterone treatment by CIDR. The TAK-683 (35nmol) was intravenously administered (Hour 0) on 3 days after CIDR insertion (luteal phase condition; LC) and at 12h after CIDR removal (follicular phase condition; FC). Blood samples were collected at 10min (-2 to 6h), 2h (6-24h) or 6h intervals (24-48h). In the LC, small increases in the basal concentrations of LH were observed after TAK-683 administration from 0 to 6h, which were associated with an increase in estradiol concentration, followed by a surge-like release of LH with a peak at 12.5±1.0h (n=4) after TAK-683 administration. In the FC, a surge-like release of LH occurred immediately after TAK-683 administration with a peak at 6.0±3.5h (n=5), which was earlier than that in the LC (P<0.01). The peak concentration of estradiol did not differ between the two conditions, whereas the time interval from TAK-683 treatment to estradiol peak in the LC was longer than that in the FC (12.0±0.0 compared with 6.0±4.2h, P<0.05). These findings suggest that the timing of surge-like release of LH after TAK-683 administration is associated with blood estradiol concentration at the time of treatment.
