The ovariectomy would induce the occurrence of obesity, but its regulatory mechanism is not clear. This study aimed to elucidate the regulation on fat accumulation for ovariectomy in mouse. In the current study, the abdominal fat mass dramatically increased in OVX mice compared with sham mice at eighth week after ovariectomy, accompanied with the higher GnRH level in blood and abdominal fat tissue. Also, a decrease of the abdominal fat mass was occurred in OVX mice with a GnRH-antagonist injection. Furthermore, the results in vivo and in vitro confirmed that GnRH promoted the transition of G1/S phase by upregulating CCND1 and CCNE1 mRNA levels by the mediation of GnRHR via the PKA-CREB pathway. Meanwhile, the higher FSH secretion was induced by increase GnRH and accelerate fat deposition in abdominal fat tissue. Our findings are the first to elucidate the effect mechanism of ovariectomy on obesity in mouse. GnRH stimulates fat accumulation in adipocytes via PKA-CREB pathway by directly promoting cell proliferation for driving the cell cycle and simultaneously accelerating differentiation for improving the FSH secretion.
