Binding of 17 beta-estradiol (E-2) to novel G-protein coupled receptor, Gper1, promotes intra-oocyte adenylyl cyclase activity and transactivates epidermal growth factor receptor to ensure prophase-I arrest. Although involvement of either membrane progestin receptor (mPR) or Igf system has been implicated in regulation of meiosis resumption, possibility of concurrent activation and potential synergism between 17 alpha, 20 beta-dihydroxy-4-pregnen-3-one (DHP)-and Igf-mediated signalling cascades in alleviating E-2 inhibition of oocyte maturation (OM) has not been investigated. Here using zebrafish (Danio rerio) defolliculated oocytes, we examined the effect of DHP and Igf1, either alone or in combination, in presence or absence of E-2, on OM in vitro. While priming of denuded oocytes with E-2 blocked spontaneous maturation, co-treatment with DHP (3 nM) and Igf1 (10 nM), but not alone, reversed E-2 inhibition and promoted a robust increase in germinal vesicle breakdown (GVBD). Although stimulation with either Igf1 or DHP promoted Akt phosphorylation, pharmacological inhibition of PI3K/Akt signalling prevented Igf1-induced GVBD but delayed DHP action till 4-5 h of incubation. Moreover, high intra-oocyte cAMP attenuates both DHP and Igf1-mediated OM and co-stimulation with DHP and Igf1 could effectively reverse E-2 action on PKA phosphorylation. Interestingly, data from in vivo studies reveal that heightened expression of igf1, igf3 transcripts in intact follicles corresponded well with elevated phosphorylation of Igf1r and Akt, mPRa immunoreactivity, PKA inhibition and accelerated GVBD response just prior to ovulation. This indicates potential synergism between maturational steroid and Igf1 which might have physiological relevance in overcoming E-2 inhibition of meiosis resumption in zebrafish oocytes.
