Insulin action and characterization of insulin receptors in rat luteal cells

The effect of insulin (Ins) on luteal cell function was assayed and Ins binding was characterized in isolated collagenase-dispersed rat luteal cells. Ins stimulated progesterone production at concentrations over 10-8 M, whereas human CG (hCG) produced maximal stimulation at 10- M. Ins had an additiv...

Ins had an additive effect when it was added to the luteal cells in the presence of hCG in concentrations that produced submaximal stimulation. At 10-9 M Ins the additive effect on hCG response became apparent (80% of maximal progesterone production).
