However, there is very little evidence regarding its effect at the ovarian level. The aim of this work was to study the local involvement of the LIF\/LIFR\u03b2 system in follicular development and steroidogenesis in rat ovaries. To carry out this research, LIF\/LIFR\/GP130 transcript and protein levels were measured in fertile and sub-fertile rat ovaries, and\n                    <jats:italic>in vitro<\/jats:italic>\n                    experiments were performed to assess STAT3 activation. Then, in\n                    <jats:italic>in vivo<\/jats:italic>\n                    experiments, LIF was administered chronically and locally for 28 days to the ovaries of rats by means of an osmotic minipump to enable us to evaluate the effect on folliculogenesis and steroidogenesis. It was determined by quantitative polymerase chain reaction and western blot that LIF and its receptors are present in fertile and sub-fertile ovaries and that LIF varies during the oestrous cycle, being higher during the oestrus and meta\/dioestrus stages. In addition to this, it was found that LIF can activate STAT3 pathways and cause pSTAT3 formation. It was also observed that LIF decreases the number and size of preantral and antral follicles without altering the number of atretic antral follicles and can increase the number of corpora lutea, with a notable increase in the levels of progesterone (P4). It is therefore possible to infer that LIF exerts an important effect\n                    <jats:italic>in vivo<\/jats:italic>\n                    on folliculogenesis, ovulation and steroidogenesis, specifically the synthesis of P4.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1530\/joe-22-0255","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,4,20]],"date-time":"2023-04-20T10:35:02Z","timestamp":1681986902000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1530\/crossmarkpolicy-5","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Participation of leukaemia inhibitory factor in follicular development and steroidogenesis in rat ovaries"],"prefix":"10.1530","volume":"258","author":[{"given":"S","family":"Pe\u00f1a","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Neurobiochemical studies in Endocrine Diseases, Laboratory of Neurobiochemistry, Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Faculty of Chemistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences, Universidad de Chile, Santiago, Chile"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"M","family":"Rubio","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Neurobiochemical studies in Endocrine Diseases, Laboratory of Neurobiochemistry, Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Faculty of Chemistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences, Universidad de Chile, Santiago, Chile"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"C","family":"Vargas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Neurobiochemical studies in Endocrine Diseases, Laboratory of Neurobiochemistry, Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Faculty of Chemistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences, Universidad de Chile, Santiago, Chile"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"C","family":"Alanis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Neurobiochemical studies in Endocrine Diseases, Laboratory of Neurobiochemistry, Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Faculty of Chemistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences, Universidad de Chile, Santiago, Chile"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3496-5663","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"AH","family":"Paredes","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Neurobiochemical studies in Endocrine Diseases, Laboratory of Neurobiochemistry, Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Faculty of Chemistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences, Universidad de Chile, Santiago, Chile"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"416","reference":[{"key":"bib1","series-title":"Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology: RB&E","first-page":"64","article-title":"Increases in norepinephrine release and ovarian cyst formation during ageing in the rat","volume":"7","author":"Acu\u00f1a","year":"2009","unstructured":"Acu\u00f1a EFornes RFernandois DGarrido MPGreiner MLara HE & Paredes AH2009Increases in norepinephrine release and ovarian cyst formation during ageing in the rat.
