| Abstract | Progesterone plays a central role in the regulation of ovarian functions. Progesterone receptor (PGR) is expressed as two isoforms, PGRA and PGRB, which have been shown to have different functional activities. This immunohistochemical study describes the diverse localization of PGRA and PGRB in the porcine ovarian components: small and large antral follicles, early, midluteal and regressing corpora lutea. Ovaries were obtained from 10 cycling sows. PGRs were visualized by immunohistochemistry on paraffin sections using monoclonal antibodies against PGRA (clone 16) or PGRB (clone SAN 27). Moreover, to confirm the specificity of antibodies, Western blot analysis was performed. Nuclear staining for PGRs was observed in cells of granulosa and theca layer, corpora lutea and surface epithelium. Our results revealed that PGRA was the predominant PGR isoform in the pig ovary. In small antral follicles its expression was restricted to theca interna cells, but in large preovulatory follicles, both granulosa and theca layers stained for PGRA. In contrast, immunoreaction for PGRB isoform was limited to granulosa cells of large antral porcine follicles, while their theca layers were devoid of PGRB. The number of both PGRA and PGRB stained cells within the corpora lutea declined significantly during the luteal phase, which might be explained by the decreasing level of locally produced progesterone. The differential distribution and variations in the scores for PGRA and PGRB in various pig ovarian cell types during the cycle may reflect diverse functions for PGRA and PGRB as well as suggest a cell-specific influence of progesterone. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
