Trans-resveratrol inhibits phosphorylation of Smad2/3 and represses FSH? gene expression by a SirT1-independent pathway in L?T2 gonadotrope cells.


ABSTRACT: Resveratrol (trans-3,5,4'-trihydroxystilbene), a polyphenol found in red wine, has multiple beneficial activities that are similar to caloric restriction. In this study, we analyzed the effect of resveratrol on the gonadotropin genes, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH?) and luteinizing hormone (LH?) in L?T2 immortalized mouse gonadotrope cells. Resveratrol specifically inhibited activin-induced FSH? mRNA and protein expression, and reduced activin-stimulated Smad2/3 phosphorylation. Knockdown of SirT1 gene expression or SirT1 inhibition did not block repression of FSH? expression or suppression of Smad2/3 phosphorylation, but did increase p53 acetylation. Taken together, our results suggest that resveratrol down-regulates Smad2/3 phosphorylation and suppresses FSH? expression via a SirT1-independent pathway.

Resveratrol (trans-3,5,4'-trihydroxystilbene), a polyphenol found in red wine, has multiple beneficial activities that are similar to caloric restriction. In this study, we analyzed the effect of resveratrol on the gonadotropin genes, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSHβ) and luteinizing hormone (LHβ) in LβT2 immortalized mouse gonadotrope cells. Resveratrol specifically inhibited activin-induced FSHβ mRNA and protein expression, and reduced activin-stimulated Smad2/3 phosphorylation. Knockdown of  ...[more]
