Studies of hormone-induced 'desensitization' in the luteinized rat ovary show that changes in receptor number and adenylate cyclase at the cell surface result in an altered biological effect of luteinizing hormone on progesterone production. The sensitivity of these effects to changes in gonadotropin levels suggests that receptor turnover or processing is involved in the normal mechanism of hormone action.
对黄体化大鼠卵巢中激素诱导的“脱敏”研究表明,细胞表面受体数量和腺苷酸环化酶的变化导致促黄体生成素对孕酮生成的生物学效应发生改变。这些效应对促性腺激素水平变化的敏感性表明,受体周转或加工参与了激素作用的正常机制。
