In the present study, we determined the potential for post-transcriptional regulation of cytochrome P450 aromatase (Cyp19), cytochrome P450 side-chain cleavage (Cyp11a) and 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase I (Hsd17b1) mRNA. Bovine granulosa cells were cultured in non-luteinizing conditions that permit long-term oestradiol secretion. Half-lives of mRNA were measured by Northern and/or reverse transcriptase (RT)-PCR after inhibition of gene transcription. In FSH-stimulated cells, the Cyp11a and Hsd17b1 mRNAs had half-lives greater than 12 h. The half-life of Cyp19 mRNA was significantly shorter at 3 h. The addition of the translation inhibitor cycloheximide to FSH-stimulated cells significantly increased Cyp19 mRNA half-life to approximately 12 h. Stimulation of cells with insulin resulted in Cyp19 mRNA half-life that was double ( P &lt;0.05) that in FSH-stimulated cells. We conclude that bovine Cyp19 mRNA is very labile under physiological conditions, and that Cyp19 expression is under hormonal control at a post-transcriptional level.
