摘要

To investigate the pituitary-testicular function in nephrotic rats, a sequence of experiments was undertaken in adult male rats after a single dose of puromycin aminonucleoside (PAN). Endocrine modifications were evaluated chronologically throughout the experimental disease in order to determine the appearance of hormone alterations which lead to the axis dysfunction. Serum concentration of LH, FSH, androstenedione, total and free testosterone, estradiol as well as urine testosterone were measured by specific RIAs on days 3, 7 and 10 after treatment on nephrotic and control groups. Prolactin was also evaluated on day 10. Likewise, total weight of various androgen responsive tissues from both groups was recorded, and the number of androgen receptor (AR) binding sites were determined. To know the functional status of the hipophyseal-testicular unit, groups of nephrotic and control rats were stimulated with LHRH (300 ng/100 g b.w.) or with one or four doses of hCG (8 UI), respectively. Additionally, the relative in vitro biological activity of FSH from nephrotic and control rats before and after LHRH stimulus was determined. The results from the hormonal profile revealed clear endocrine disorders characterized by a progressive diminution of all serum hormones except prolactin and urine testosterone, which remained unmodified. The weight of the main androgen responsive tissues, the ventral prostate and the seminal vesicle, decreased parallelly to androgen diminution. The binding analysis of AR shows a significant elevation of the available androgen sites in all analyzed tissues except kidney and hypothalamus. The secretion of LH and FSH from nephrotic animals after LHRH administration was lower than that from intact animals at the registered times. Interestingly, the biological activity of FSH from nephrotic rats was not detectable at both, before and after LHRH administration. Testicular response to hCG stimuli, in terms of testosterone synthesis was not significantly different in the two groups analyzed with respect to the intact animals. By contrast, no response was observed in terms of estradiol production at either one or four doses of hCG. On the whole, the results presented herein allow us to conclude that experimental nephrosis has a harmful effect on the pituitary-testicular axis, and strongly suggests that the endocrine dysfunction is initiated at the hypophyseal level; even though a specific testicular damage is also present.
