The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of recombinant bovine growth hormone-releasing factor (rGRF) or recombinant bovine somatotropin (rbST) on growth and function of the first-wave dominant follicle and corpus luteum. Primiparous Holstein cows (117 d postpartum) were infused with 12 mg/d of rGRF (n = 10) or 29 mg/d of rbST (n = 10) for 63 d, and non-infused cows (n = 10) were controls. At slaughter on d 5 of an estrous cycle, blood and ovaries were collected and data from cows with a corpus luteum were analyzed (control, n = 8; rGRF, n = 5; rbST, n = 6). Treatment with rGRF or rbST increased somatotropin (ST) and IGF-I in serum similarly compared with controls. In contrast, rbST-treated cows had higher concentrations of ST in follicular fluid (FF) compared with rGRF-treated and control cows. In addition, rbST, but not rGRF, increased the number and decreased the size of estrogen-active follicles (EA; estradiol > progesterone concentrations in FF), increased the abundance of IGF binding proteins-2, -3, and -4 in FF from EA follicles, and increased the number but decreased the size of corpora lutea and decreased concentration of progesterone in serum compared with controls. Based on these results, we concluded that long-term infusion of rbST alters growth and function of the first-wave dominant follicle and the corpus luteum in cattle.
