Abstract: Ovine FSH was administered hourly to ewes for 48 h from the initiation of luteolysis. The mean ovulation rates of ewes receiving 2.5 µg FSH/h (2.1 ± 0.2 ovulations/ewe, mean ± s.e.m., n=8) and 5.0 µg FSH/h (6.2 ± 2.0 ovulations/ewe, n=6) were significantly higher (P< 0.01) than that of control ewes (1.3 ± 0.1 ovulations/ewe, n=16). Mean plasma concentrations of FSH were also raised above normal by these doses of FSH. Plasma concentrations of FSH were reduced below normal by twice daily administration of steroid-free bovine follicular fluid (bFF) for 48 h from the initiation of luteolysis. As a consequence follicles failed to achieve ovulatory maturity. Large follicles (?5mm diameter) from ewes treated with bFF for 48 h had reduced concentrations of oestradiol-17b in follicular fluid, fewer granulosa cells, and the cells had a reduced ability to metabolise testosterone to oestradiol-17b and to produce cyclic AMP when challenged with FSH or LH. |
