Hemi-pituitary glands of ovariectomized rats were superfused for 4 h with either LHRH or the analog buserelin (HOE 766) at several concentrations, and thereafter with medium only for another 1.5 h. In a further experiment glands were exposed for 2.5 h to LHRH or buserelin at a single concentration (5 ng/ml) and subsequently for another 2.5 h to either the same agonist (LHRH or buserelin) alone (5 ng/ml), the agonist plus an LHRH-antagonist (ORG 30093, 1000 ng/ml), the LHRH- antagonist alone, or medium alone. LHRH and buserelin stimulated gonadotropin release equally well. After cessation of this stimulation, the gonadotropin release by the buserelin-treated pituitary glands and the glands, treated with the highest dose of LHRH (1000 ng/ml), continued, while the release by the glands, treated with the lower doses of LHRH, declined. The LHRH-antagonist completely blocked the release of LH, stimulated by buserelin or LHRH, as well as the prolonged activation of the release, caused by buserelin pre-treatment. In a superfusion experiment with pituitary cell aggregates of 14-day-old intact female rats, buserelin stimulated the release of LH much more effectively than LHRH itself. Moreover, the release caused by buserelin declined more slowly after cessation of the stimulation. Finally, in a pituitary cell monolayer culture the Kd's of LHRH, buserelin and the antagonist were determined as 4.7 X 10(-9) M, 2.4 X 10(-10) M and 4.6 X 10(-9) respectively. It was concluded that the estimates of the potencies of LHRH and buserelin depend on the choice of the test-system. It is suggested that the long duration of action of buserelin is at least partly due to prolonged binding to the LHRH-receptor.
