A luteinising hormone receptor binding inhibitor (LHRBI) has been purified from bovine corpus luteum (CL). Steroid-free extract of the CL was subjected to successive chromatographies on Sephadex G-50, Q-Sepharose, Orange A dye and metal chelate affinity columns followed by high performance-reverse phase and gel filtration columns. Purification was monitored by the ability of the fractions to inhibit the binding of 125I-human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) to porcine granulosa cells in vitro. The final isolate showed an 8000-fold enrichment of activity. It was also capable of inhibiting porcine granulosa cell secretion of estradiol and progesterone (P) in vitro. Administration of LHRBI into follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH)-stimulated, immature rats strongly inhibited the ovarian ovulatory response to hCG as revealed by decreased P levels and the number of ova released. The M(r) of LHRBI as assessed by sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was ca. 15 kDa and the pI was between 5.0 and 5.5.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D010060	Ovulation	The discharge of an OVUM from a rupturing follicle in the OVARY.	Ovulations
D010455	Peptides	Members of the class of compounds composed of AMINO ACIDS joined together by peptide bonds between adjacent amino acids into linear, branched or cyclical structures. OLIGOPEPTIDES are composed of approximately 2-12 amino acids. Polypeptides are composed of approximately 13 or more amino acids. PROTEINS are considered to be larger versions of peptides that can form into complex structures such as ENZYMES and RECEPTORS.	Peptide,Polypeptide,Polypeptides
D011374	Progesterone	The major progestational steroid that is secreted primarily by the CORPUS LUTEUM and the PLACENTA. Progesterone acts on the UTERUS, the MAMMARY GLANDS and the BRAIN. It is required in EMBRYO IMPLANTATION; PREGNANCY maintenance, and the development of mammary tissue for MILK production. Progesterone, converted from PREGNENOLONE, also serves as an intermediate in the biosynthesis of GONADAL STEROID HORMONES and adrenal CORTICOSTEROIDS.	Pregnenedione,Progesterone, (13 alpha,17 alpha)-(+-)-Isomer,Progesterone, (17 alpha)-Isomer,Progesterone, (9 beta,10 alpha)-Isomer
D011974	Receptors, LH	Those protein complexes or molecular sites on the surfaces and cytoplasm of gonadal cells that bind luteinizing or chorionic gonadotropic hormones and thereby cause the gonadal cells to synthesize and secrete sex steroids. The hormone-receptor complex is internalized from the plasma membrane and initiates steroid synthesis.

D004958	Estradiol	The 17-beta-isomer of estradiol, an aromatized C18 steroid with hydroxyl group at 3-beta- and 17-beta-position.

D006063	Chorionic Gonadotropin	A gonadotropic glycoprotein hormone produced primarily by the PLACENTA. Similar to the pituitary LUTEINIZING HORMONE in structure and function, chorionic gonadotropin is involved in maintaining the CORPUS LUTEUM during pregnancy. CG consists of two noncovalently linked subunits, alpha and beta. Within a species, the alpha subunit is virtually identical to the alpha subunits of the three pituitary glycoprotein hormones (TSH, LH, and FSH), but the beta subunit is unique and confers its biological specificity (CHORIONIC GONADOTROPIN, BETA SUBUNIT, HUMAN).
