  • 본 실험은 조피볼락 (Sebastes schlegeli)의 생식년주기와 생식주기에 따른 sex steroid hormone들의 계절적인 변화를 밝히기 위하여 GSI와 HSI의 연간 변동과 생식소 조직학적인 연간 변화와 sex steroid hormone ($estradiol-l7{\beta}, 17{\alpha}, 20{\beta}-dihydroxy-4-pregnen-3-one, testosterone$, 그리고 $11-ketotestosterone$)의 혈중 수준의 연간 변화를 조사하였다. 암컷의 생식주기는 다음과 같이 5단계로 구분할 수 있었다: 1) 회복기 (6월${\~}$9월): 혈중 $estradiol-l7{\beta}$의 수준이 점차 증가 하였다. 2) 난황형성기 (9월~2월): 난모세포의 난황 형성이 관찰되며, GSI 값과 혈중 $estradiol-l7{\beta}$수준이 증가하였다; 3) 임신기 (2월${\~}$4월): 난소내에 발생중인 자어가 관찰되며, 2월에서 3월에 이르러 혈중 $17{\alpha}, 20{\beta}-dihydroxy-4-pregnen-3-one$와 testosterone의 수준이 증가하였다: 4) 출산기 ($4{\~}5$월): GSI 값이 급격히 감소하면서 난소내에는 자어들의 출산된 흔적이 보였다: 5) 휴지기 ($5월$${\~}$7월) GSI값과 혈중 steroid hormone의 수준이 낮은 값을 유지하였다. 수컷의 생식년주기는 6단계로 나눌 수 있었다: 1) 정자형성 초기(4월${\~}$6월): GSI의 값과 혈중 steroid hormone의 수준이 점진적으로 증가하였으며, 정원세포의 포낭이 수가 증가하고 일부의 정모세포의 포낭들도 관찰되었다; 2) 정자형성 중기 (6월${\~}$9월): GSI의 값과 혈중 steroid hormone의 수준이 증가하고 많은 포낭내의 생식세포들이 활발하게 정자형성을 하고 있었다: 3) 정자형성기 후기 (9월${\~}$11월): GSI와 steroid hormone의 수준이 높은 값을 유지하고 있었으며, 정자들이 정세관 내강으로 방출되었다; 4) 정자 방출기 (11월${\~}$12월): 전세관의 내강이 확장되고 이 내강내에는 성숙된 정자들로 가득차 있었다: 5) 퇴화기 (12월${\~}$2월): GSI의 값이 점차로 감소하면서 정모세포의 포낭수도 점차로 감소하였다: 6) 휴지기 (2월${\~}$4월): 정소조직의 변화는 보이지 않았으며, GSI와 steroid hormone의 수준이 낮은 값을 유지하였다. 11월에 정소들의 정세관 내강에 성숙된 정자들로 가득차 있었고 난소내강에 정자괴들이 관찰되는 것으로 보아 이종의 교미시기는 11월과 12월사이라고 할 수 있다.

  • Sex steroid hormones are key molecules to prepare the decidual response and their levels are important in this process. Imbalances of the levels of steroid hormones are cause of implantation failure and other diseases including physical weakness. Androgen replacement therapy or selective androgen receptor modulator are used to overcome various diseases but long-term use may cause of side effects. In previous report, it is suggested that the steroid hormonal complexes derived from pig enhance the proliferation of satellite cell. Therefore, to evaluate the possible usage of steroid hormonal complex derived from pig testis (tS-C), the effects of tS-C on uterine response were studied using the model of artificial decidua. tS-C did not disturb the rhythmical estrus cycle. Artificial-induced decidual response was normally induced in tS-C administered mice. The histological characters of the decidua of tS-C administered mice were not different from the vehicle. The expression patterns of molecular markers of decidua were not different between vehicle and tS-C group. Collectively these results suggested that tS-C does not disturb the uterine responsibility to the embryo. In addition, our results suggested that tS-C can be applied to overcome the various problems such as loss of muscle mass and anemia.

  • The influence of TBTO (Tributyltin-Oxide) at a series of concentrations (0.52, 1.41 and 3.05 $\mu$g/L) for a period of 3 weeks on estradiol-17$\beta$, testosterone and cortisol levels in male Korean rockfish, Sebastes schlegeli was investigated. Compared to the stable concentration of estradiol-17$\beta$, plasma testosterone level was decreased significantly at the 3rd week after TBTO exposure in plasma of fish (>1.41 $\mu$g/L). The most profound physiological variation in TBTO exposed fish was a dramatic increase in plasma cortisol level at 3rd week. Conclusively, TBTO exposure caused increase level of cortisol as well as alteration of testosterone in the Korean rockfish. These results suggest that TBTO at environmentally relevant (nanomolar) concentrations disrupt endocrine secretions.

  • These studies were undertaken to examine the relationship between tamoxifen and sex steroid hormones in rat uterine morphology and the effect of tamoxifen on sex steroid hormone levels, implantation and myometrial contraction. The results obtained were as follows : 1) The increase in height of the luminal epithelium caused by tamoxifen treatment was blocked by progesterone. The increase in height of luminal epithelium caused by $estradiol-17{\beta}$ treatment was blocked by tamoxifen. 2) When a single dose of tamoxifen(10, 20, $40{\mu}g$) was given on Day 2 of pregnancy, implantation was prevented. Plasma $estradiol-17{\beta}$ level fell in a dose-dependent manner but plasma progesterone level was constant. 3) In vitro, tamoxifen decreased rat uterine contractility in a dose-dependent manner.

  • The sperm collection time, sex steroid hormones, and gonadal development of protandrous black porgy, Acanthopagrus schlegeli, acclimated in freshwater for more than 2 years were investigated to evaluate its reproductive capability. The gonadal development of black porgy reared in seawater and freshwater could each be classified into four successive stages. For black porgy reared in seawater (BSW) as the control, these were the growing (December to February), mature (February to March), spent (March to June), and degeneration and resting (July to December) stages; for black porgy reared in freshwater (BFW), these were the growing (November to January), mature (January to February), spent (February to May), degeneration and resting (June to November) stages. In both BSW and BFW, the plasma cortisol levels were the highest in March. The plasma testosterone (T) levels of BSW and BFW were the highest in March and February, respectively. The plasma estradiol-$17{\beta}$ ($E_2$) levels did not differ significantly between BSW and BFW. The 11-ketotestosterone (11-KT) levels in the plasma of BSW and BFW were the highest in April. Sperm was collectible from March to June in BSW and from February to May in BFW. The results indicated that the gonadal maturation of BFW was about 1 month faster than that of BSW.
