Porcine follicular fluid contains several factors capable of inhibiting the binding, in vitro, of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) to receptor, including an agonist and an antagonist of FSH biological activity in vitro. FSH receptor-binding inhibitory activity (FSH-BI) was determined with assays using radioligand (125iodide-human FSH) receptor (calf-testes membrane); in vitro biological assays (cultured immature rat Sertoli cells) were used to determine antagonist/agonist activity. FSH antagonist activity is due to a low (<5000) molecular weight FSH-BI that is soluble in acidic acetone and insoluble in diethyl ether allowing preparative scale isolation. Additional purification was achieved by anion-exchange and reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography. Highly purified, biologically active FSH-BI contained the amino acids Ser, Gly, Arg, Thr, Ala, Pro, Val, and Lys; hexoses (phenol-sulfuric acid-positive reaction); and ethanolamine. Thus, this FSH antagonist appears to be a complex glycopeptide - possibly derived from membrane components, as suggested by the presence of ethanolamine and carbohydrate residues. Porcine follicular fluid, therefore, contains a low molecular weight FSH antagonist that, along with the high molecular weight FSH agonist previously identified, may regulate gonadal responsiveness to FSH through interactions with the FSH receptor.
