Gonadal Hormones1. TestosteroneCurrent Lecture: I. Two Breed Rota-Terminal CrossA. Advantages- Produce replacement females- Heterosis in females- Maximum heterosis in terminal cross calves- Can utilize complementary in terminal cross calvesB. Disadvantages- Only 67% heterosis in females and rotational calves- Requires greater number of animals to implement- Requires greater management inputII. Endocrine System: endocrine glands secrete hormones carried to other parts of the body (target organ/tissues) through the blood-streamA. Hormones: chemical substances that are carried by the blood stream to a target organ and elicit a consistent responseB. Specific Endocrine Glands1. Pituitary (anterior/posterior): base of brain2. Hypothalamus: above pituitary3. Gonads: testes/ovaries4. Thyroid: lobes on sides of larynx5. Adrenal Cortex: close to kidneys6. Pancreas: near duodenum7. Uterus8. PlacentaIII. PituitaryA. Anterior Hormones1. Growth Hormone/GH (protein)- “RBST” (bovine somatrotropin) stimulates growth of bone and muscle2. Thyroid Stimulating Hormone/TSH (glycoprotein)- stimulates thyroid gland3. Adrenocorticotrophic Hormone/ACTH (protein)- stimulates adrenal cortex to secrete corticosteroids (glucorticoids) involved in energy metabolism4. Follicle Stimulating Hormone/FSH (glycoprotein)a. Male- stimulates sertoli cells in testes to initiate spermatogenesis upto secondary spermatocytes b. Female- stimulates granulose cells in ovary to enlarge and develop the follicle on ovary; acts synergistically with luteinizing hormone to stimulate estrogen production5. Luteinizing Hormone/LH (glycoprotein)a. Male- stimulates interstitial cells (leydig cells) of testes to produce testosterone (ICSH) b. Female- stimulates luteal cells on ovary- Ovulation- Formation of corpus Luteum (CL)- Stimulates progesterone production and secretionActs with FSH to produce estrogen6. Prolactin/PRL (Proteina. Female- Initiation and maintenance of lactation (mammary tissue)- Induces maternal behaviorB. Posterior Hormones1. Oxytocin (protein)- stimulates contraction of smooth muscle of uterus and oviduct and thus;- Stimulates transport of sperm and ova- Expulsion of fetus at parturition- Myoepithelial cells in mammary gland to contract and release milk- “milk letdown”IV. Hypothalamus- mainly produces releasing and inhibiting hormonesA. Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone/GnRH (FSHRH/LHRH)- stimulates release of FSH and LH from anterior pituitaryB. PIF and PRF- prolactin inhibiting/releasing hormonesC. GHRH and GHIH (somatostatin)- stimulates release/inhibition of release of growth hormonesD. Corticotrophin RH- stimulates release of ACTH from anterior PituitaryV. GonadsA. Gonadal Hormones: steroid/derived from cholesterol1. Testosterone (T2): produced in leydig cells of testes (interstitial cells)- Stimulates spermatogenesis in the seminiferous tubules- Develops/maintains secondary (accessory) sex glands- Develops secondary sex characteristics- Increases “libido” (sexual desire)- Increase nitrogen retention (^ protein synthesis and muscle growth)Lecture 23 (March 19)I. Gonads ContinuedA. Estrogen (E2): produced in follicles on the ovary and placenta- Stimulates “estrus” behavior: standing heat (receptive to mating)- Maintenance of female secondary sex characteristics- Needed for normal growth of uterus and female reproduction tract- Stimulates duct development in the mammary gland- Interacts with oxytocin and prostaglandin to increase uterine contractibility- Increases nitrogen retention (anabolic effect)B. Progesterone (P4): produced by the corpus Luteum and placenta- Maintenance of pregnancy- Promotes uterine contractions- Acts synergistically with estrogen to stimulate “estrus” behavior- Promotes alveolar growth in the mammary gland- Inhibits LH (ovulation)C. Relaxin: produced by ovary- Relaxation and dilation of cervix during parturition - Relaxation of the pubic symphasis during parturitionII. UterusA. Prostaglandin (PGF2α): causes regression of corpus Luteum and restarts estrous cycleIII. Thyroid GlandA. Triodothyronine (T3) and Thyroxin (T4): needs iodine for normal function- Accelerates all aspects of carb., lipids and protein metabolism- Increase basal metabolic rate and body temperatureIV. Adrenal GlandA. Glucocorticoids: stimulate gluconeogenesis (protein  CHO)B. Mineralocorticoids: regulate Na, Ca, and H2O balanceC. Adrenaline (epinephrine) /Noradrenaline (norepinephrine): regulate fight or flight mechanism - Stress  energy?V. PancreasA. Insulin and Glucagon- Regulate the passage of glucose in/out of the bloodstream- Diabetes: lack of insulinVI. The Estrous Cycle in Cattle - Ovulation occurs during estrus- Progesterone: blocks estrus cycles in future if pregnant- Dominant follicle grows mid-way through estrus cycle because of FSH peakVII. ChartPuberty (mo.)Estrous cycle Duration of EstrusTime of ovulationlength (d)Cow 6 – 18 21 18 hr 18 – 48 hrEwe 6 – 12 17 30 hr 24 – 27 hr** Mare 20 22 7 days 24 – 48 hrs** Sow 5 – 10 21 60 hr 38 – 42 hr** **prior to end of estrus** Cow ovulates after estrus, everyone else during estrus**REPRODUCTION: MALE ANATOMY**VIII. Testes: two main functionsA. Sperm production: occurs in seminiferous (sertoli cells) tubules/ FSH and T2 regulateB. Androgen (T2) production: occurs in leydig cells / LH regulatesIX. Scrotum: houses and protects testes and regulate temperature- Maintains testicle temperature (3-7°F in bull and 9-13°F lower in ram)- 99-95° ideal for sperm production- Too hot/cold- sperm killed- Tunicadartos (thin muscle of scrotum) and Cremaster
