Follicular fluids from eight patients with one ovary and from ten patients with two ovaries were investigated for bioactive inhibin, total renin, oestradiol (E) and progesterone (P) concentrations. Four follicular fluids were pooled per patient before assessment. All women had been stimulated similarly using a protocol including a GnRH agonist, HMG and HCG. Renin levels were significantly lower and P significantly higher in pools of follicular fluid from patients with one ovary, whereas inhibin and E concentrations were similar in both patient groups. A significant negative correlation was found in the pools of follicular fluid between inhibin and E in both groups. These results suggest a role for inhibin and renin in the paracrine and autocrine control of stimulated follicular development [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER] |
