  • Objective: We compared the assisted reproductive technology (ART) outcomes among infertile women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) treated with IVM, conventional IVF, GnRH agonist, and GnRH antagonist cycles. Methods: The prospective study included a total of 67 cycles in 61 infertile women with PCOS. The women with PCOS were randomized into three IVF protocols: IVM/IVF with FSH and hCG priming with immature oocyte retrieval 38 hours later (group A, 14 cycles), GnRH agonist long protocol (group B, 14 cycles), and GnRH antagonist multi-dose flexible protocol (group C, 39 cycles). IVF outcomes, such as clinical pregnancy rate (CPR), implantation rate (IR), miscarriage rate (MR), and live birth rate (LBR), were compared among the three groups. Results: Age, BMI, and basal FSH and LH levels did not differ among the three groups. The number of retrieved oocytes and 2 pronucleus embryos was significantly lower in group A compared with groups B and C. The CPR, IR, MR, and LBR per embryo transfer showed no differences among the three groups. There was no incidence of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome in group A. Conclusion: The IR, MR, and LBR in the IVM cycles were comparable to those of the GnRH agonist and GnRH antagonist cycles. The IVM protocol, FSH and hCG priming with oocyte retrieval 38 hours later, is an effective ART option that is comparable with conventional IVF for infertile women with PCOS.

  • 목 적: 본 연구는 전향적 무작위 배정법 연구로 40세 이상의 불임여성의 자연주기에서 소량의 재조합난포자극호르몬을 이용한 최소자극법의 효과를 성선자극호르몬분비호르몬길항제 다회투여법과 비교 분석하고자 한다. 연구방법: 불임크리닉을 방문하였던 환자들 중 나이가 40세 이상인 75명 환자들을 대상으로 시행하였다. 연구군은 최소자극법으로 37명, 대조군은 성선자극호르몬분비호르몬길항제 다회투여법으로 38명의 환자들로 구성되었으며 모두 체외수정시술을 시행 받았다. 주기 취소율, 난포자극호르몬 종 사용량과 일수, 성숙난자의 수, 이식된 배아의 수, 배아이식 주기당 임신율, 착상율 등을 비교하였으며, 통계학적인 방법은 평균값의 비교를 위하여 Student's t-test를 이용하였고 분율의 비교를 위하여 ${\chi}^2$ 검정, Fisher's exact test를 사용하였으며, p값이 0.05 미만인 경우에 통계학적으로 유의하다고 판정하였다. 결 과: 두 군간의 대상 환자들의 기본적인 특성은 차이가 없었다. rhFSH의 투여기간과 총용량에서 연구군의 경우 4.5${\pm}$1.2일, 632.2${\pm}$123.7 IU로 대조군에서의 11.3${\pm}$2.7일, 3124.6${\pm}$452.1 IU에 비하여 통계학적으로 유의하게 낮은 값을 보였고, 주기 취소율은 연구군에서 16.2%, 대조군에서 5.3%로 통계적으로 유의성은 없었다. 회수된 난자의 수, 성숙한 제 2감수분열 중기 상태의 난자의 수 및 수정된 난자의 수, 양질의 배아수, 배아이식된 배아의 수에 있어서 대조군에 비해서 연구군에서 통계적으로 유의하게 낮았다. 배란유도를 시작한 주기당 임상적 임신율과 배아이식 주기당 임상적임신율은 연구군의 경우 각각 10.8%와 13.4%로 대조군에서 13.2%와 13.9%에 비하여 다소 낮긴 하였으나 통계학적으로 유의성은 없었다. 착상율, 자연유산율에서는 두 군간의 차이가 없었다. 결 론: 40세 이상의 고령 여성에서 체외수정술을 시행하고자 할 때 배란유도의 방법으로 GnRH antagonist와 성선자극호르몬을 이용한 최소자극법은 성선자극호르몬분비호르몬길항제 다회투여법과 비교하여 임신율이 감소하지 않으며 비용면에서 효율적이고 효과적인 방법이다.

  • The purpose of this paper is to assimilate all data pertaining to the use of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonists in in vitro fertilization cycles after ovulation trigger to reduce the symptoms of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS). A systematic review of the literature was performed to identify all studies performed on the use of a GnRH antagonist in IVF cycle post-ovulation trigger with patients at high risk for OHSS. Ten studies were identified and reviewed. Descriptions of the studies and their individual results are presented in the following manuscript. Due to significant heterogeneity among the studies, it was not possible to perform a group analysis. The use of GnRH antagonists post-ovulation trigger for treatment of OHSS has been considered for almost 20 years, though research into its use is sparse. Definitive conclusions and recommendations cannot be made at this time, though preliminary data from these trials demonstrate the potential for GnRH antagonists to play a role in the treatment of OHSS in certain patient populations.

  • 흰쥐의 뇌하수체 전엽배양세포에 gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH)을 처리하였을 때 시간이 경과함에 따라 GnRH농도에 비례하여 luteinizing hormone(LH)의 분비가 증가하였으며, 2시간까지 급격하게 증가하였다. 또한 GnRH를 처리하였을때 ${\alpha}$ subunit mRNA의 농도는 증가하지 않았으나 $LH{\beta}$ subunit mRNA의 농도는 GnRH 농도에 비례하여 증가하였으며, GnRH 처리후 6시간 이후부터 유의하게 증가하였다. 특히 최종농도가 $2{\times}10^{-10}M$이 되도록 GnRH를 처리하였을 때 $LH{\beta}$ subunit mRNA 농도가 2.7배 정도 최대로 증가하였다. 또한 estradiol을 단독으로 또는 GnRH와 동시에 처리하였을때 LH분비가 증가하지 않았으나 progesterone을 GnRH와 동시에 처리하였을때 LH분비가 유의하게 증가하였다. 또한 $LH{\beta}$ subunit mRNA의 농도는 estradiol및 progesterone을 단독으로 또는 GnRH와 동시에 처리하였을때 난소호르몬 농도에 의존적으로 $LH{\beta}$ subunit mRNA의 농도가 증가하였다. Estradiol에 의한 $LH{\beta}$ subunit mRNA의 증가양상은 estrogen 길항제인 LY117018에 의하여 유의하게 감소하였다. 이러한 결과로 보아 GnRH는 steady state $LH{\beta}$ subunit mRNA 농도에 영향을 미치므로써 LH분비 및 LH subunit 생합성을 조절하며 난소호르몬은 뇌하수체에 직접 작용하여 LH분비 및 LH subunit 생합성에 영향을 주는 것으로 보인다.

  • Objectives: To evaluate the efficacy of GnRH antagonist cetrorelix in women undergoing controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) for in vitro fertilization (IVF) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) and to determine changes in serum hormone concentrations during cetrorelix administration. Methods: We performed a clinical trial on 30 patients undergoing COH with highly purified follicular stimulating hormone (HP-FSH) and gonadotropin releasing hormone antagonist (GnRHant), cetrorelix. FSH was administrated from day 2 or 3 of cycle with fixed dose and adjusted according to individual response. 0.25 mg of cetrorelix was injected daily subcutaneously from stimulation day 5 until the day of hCG administration. Daily ultrasound monitoring was performed for growing follicles and serum levels of luteinizing hormone (LH), estradiol ($E_2$) and progesterone were measured daily during cetrorelix administration. Up to 4 embryos were transferred. Results: Mean age of enrolled patients was $32.0{\pm}3.4$ years (mean $\pm$ S.D.). All of 30 patients underwent oocyte pick-up, and embryo transfer was done in 28 patients. The total and mean numbers of received oocytes were 196 and $6.5{\pm}4.7$, the number of fertilized eggs was 111, and the fertilization rate was 56.6%. Total duration of FSH administration was $9.2{\pm}2.2$ days and mean of $24.3{\pm}7.7$ ampules of HP-FSH was administered. Total duration of cetrorelix administration was $5.7{\pm}1.9$ days. Serum LH and progesterone levels were maintained in the range of $1.4{\sim}2.9\;mIU/mL$ and $0.3{\sim}0.6\;ng/mL$, which respectively reflected effective prevention of premature LH surge. Clinical pregnancies were achieved in 9 patients, and overall clinical pregnancy rate was 30.0% per oocyte retrieval, and 32.1% per embryo transfer. Conclusion: GnRH antagonist is safe and convenient for COH for IVF-ET and effective with optimal pregnancy rate.
