The Influence of Calcium lonophore and Activators of Protein Kinase C on Steroid Production by Preovulatory Ovarian Follicles of the Goldfish1

Abstract

Steroidogenesis in teleost fish, as in other vertebrate groups, is mediated by the activation of adenylate cyclase. For the present studies, calcium ionophore A23187 and either phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) or 1-oleoyl-2-acetylglycerol (OAG) were used to investigate the possible roles that changes in intracellular calcium content and protein kinase C activation play in steroid production by goldfish preovulatory ovarian follicles …
