Development, maintenance, and regression of the corpus luteum have been investigated for many years. However, endocrine and cellular mechanisms regulating progesterone synthesis and secretion remain unclear. Because comprehensive reviews of factors affecting luteal function have been published recently, this paper discusses several emerging concepts that may be important in understanding the regulation of luteal progesterone synthesis and secretion. Concepts discussed include preovulatory follicular determinants of subsequent luteal function, hormonal stimulation of progesterone synthesis, effect of different luteal cell types on progesterone secretion, and role of secretory granules in luteal function.
多年来,人们一直在研究黄体的发育、维持和退化。然而,调节孕酮合成和分泌的内分泌和细胞机制仍不清楚。由于最近已发表了关于影响黄体功能因素的综合综述,本文讨论了几个新出现的概念,这些概念可能对理解黄体孕酮合成和分泌的调节很重要。讨论的概念包括后续黄体功能的排卵前卵泡决定因素、孕酮合成的激素刺激、不同黄体细胞类型对孕酮分泌的影响以及分泌颗粒在黄体功能中的作用。
