Efecto de la naltrexona sobre el perfil de secreción de hormona luteinizante en ovejas prepúberes

Secretion of LH is inhibited by opioid peptides during the prepubertal period in ewe lambs. The chronic blockade of opioid receptors with a long acting opioid receptor antagonist might accelerate the increase of LH secretion observed before the initiation of puberty. The objective of the present stu...

The chronic blockade of opioid receptors with a long acting opioid receptor antagonist might accelerate the increase of LH secretion observed before the initiation of puberty. The objective of the present study was to explore the effect of naltrexone -a long acting opioid receptor antagonist- on the 24 h pattern of LH secretion and on the pulsatile LH secretion after 3 days of treatment. Ewe lambs (4 months old, 21 ± 1 kg, n=5) were given 1.5 mg naltrexone/kg body weight every 12 h for 3 days with a total of 7 doses. Pattern of LH secretion was assessed in plasma samples obtained at hourly intervals for 24 h which were analyzed with the COSINOR program; and with plasma samples obtained at 15 min intervals for six hours, which were analyzed with the PULSAR program before naltrexone treatment and before the treatment ended.
