Popis: To study the regulation of bovine pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) in preovulatory follicles prior to ovulation, PACAP cDNA was isolated by RT-PCR. Its open reading frame (ORF) is composed of 531 bp, and encodes for a 176-amino acid protein that bears 76–90% identity with other PACAP homologs. Using bovine preovulatory follicles obtained between 0 and 24 h after human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) and semiquantitative RT-PCR/Southern blot, we demonstrate that levels of PACAP mRNA were low at 0 h, markedly increased at 6 and 12 h (P
