Corpora lutea (CL) were collected from Holstein heifers on Days 5, 10, 15 and 18 (5/day) of the estrous cycle. Dispersed luteal cell preparations were made and 10(6) viable luteal cells were incubated with bovine luteinizing hormone (LH) and different amounts of arachidonic acid in the presence and absence of the prostaglandin (PG) synthetase inhibitor indomethacin. The concentrations of progesterone, PGF2 alpha and 6-keto-PGF1 alpha, the stable inactive metabolite of prostacyclin (PGI2), were measured. Day 5 CL had the greatest initial content of 6-keto-PGF1 alpha (1.01 +/- 0.16 ng/10(6) cells), and synthesized more 6-keto-PGF1 alpha (2.55 +/- 0.43) than CL collected on Days 10 (0.57 +/- 0.11), 15 (0.08 +/- 0.05) and 18 (0.19 +/- 0.03) during a 2-h incubation period. Arachidonic acid stimulated the production of 6-keto-PGF1 alpha by Days 10, 15 and 18 luteal tissue. PGF2 alpha was produced at a greater rate on Day 5 (0.69 +/- 0.17 ng/10(6) cells) than on Days 10 (0.06 +/- 0.01), 15 (0.04 +/- 0.02) and 18 (0.08 +/- 0.01). Arachidonic acid stimulated and indomethacin inhibited the production of PGF2 alpha, in most cases. The initial content of 6-keto-PGF1 alpha was higher than that of PGF2 alpha on all days of the cycle and more 6-keto-PGF1 alpha was synthesized in response to arachidonic acid addition. The ratio of 6-keto-PGF1 alpha content to PGF2 alpha content was 4.39, 2.30, 1.25 and 1.13 on Days 5, 10, 15 and 18, respectively.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
