    Abstract We have reviewed the scientific literature related to four diseases in which to serotonin (5-HT) is involved in the etiology, herein named 5-HT-linked diseases, and whose prevalence is influenced by estrogenic status: depression, migraine, irritable bowel syndrome and eating disorders. These diseases all have in common a sex-dimorphic prevalence, with women more frequently affected than men. The co-occurrence between these 5-HT-linked diseases suggests that they have common physiopathological mechanisms. In most 5-HT-linked diseases (except for anorexia nervosa and irritable bowel syndrome), a decrease in the serotonergic tone is observed and estrogens are thought to contribute to the improvement of symptoms by stimulating the serotonergic system. Human pregnancy is characterized by a unique 5-HT and estrogen synthesis by the placenta. Pregnancy-specific disorders, such as hyperemesis gravidarum, gestational diabetes mellitus and pre-eclampsia, are associated with a hyperserotonergic state and decreased estrogen levels. Fetal programming of 5-HT-linked diseases is a complex phenomenon that involves notably fetal-sex differences, which suggest the implication of sex steroids. From a mechanistic point of view, we hypothesize that estrogens regulate the serotonergic system, resulting in a protective effect against 5-HT-linked diseases, but that, in turn, 5-HT affects estrogen synthesis in an attempt to retrieve homeostasis. These two processes (5-HT and estrogen biosynthesis) are crucial for successful pregnancy outcomes, and thus, a disruption of this 5-HT-estrogen relationship may explain pregnancy-specific pathologies or pregnancy complications associated with 5-HT-linked diseases.

    Abstract In this study, we determined whether estragole and its isomer trans-anethole interfered with feto-placental steroidogenesis in a human co-culture model composed of fetal-like adrenocortical (H295R) and placental trophoblast-like (BeWo) cells. Estragole and trans-anethole are considered the biologically active compounds within basil and fennel seed essential oils, respectively. After a 24 h exposure of the co-culture to 2.5, 5.2 and 25 μM estragole or trans-anethole, hormone concentrations of estradiol, estrone, dehydroepiandrosterone, androstenedione, progesterone and estriol were significantly increased. Using RT-qPCR, estragole and trans-anethole were shown to significantly alter the expression of several key steroidogenic enzymes, such as those involved in cholesterol transport and steroid hormone biosynthesis, including StAR, CYP11A1, HSD3B1/2, SULT2A1, and HSD17B1, -4, and -5. Furthermore, we provided mechanistic insight into the ability of estragole and trans-anethole to stimulate promoter-specific expression of CYP19 through activation of the PKA pathway in H295R cells and the PKC pathway in BeWo cells, in both cases associated with increased cAMP levels. Moreover, we show new evidence suggesting a role for progesterone in regulating steroid hormone biosynthesis through regulation of the StAR gene.

    Abstract Estrogen production by the human villous trophoblast is dependent on the biosynthetic enzyme aromatase (CYP19; CYP19A1) and is crucial for successful placental development and pregnancy outcome. Using villous cytotrophoblast cells (vCTs) freshly isolated from normal term placenta, we characterized the promoter-specific expression of CYP19A1 mRNA (derived from promoters I.1, I.4, I.8 or total transcript) and aromatase activity during villous trophoblast syncytialization. CYP19A1 mRNA levels and aromatase activity in vCTs reached a maximum after about 48 h of culture. The cAMP inducer forskolin (10 μM) and protein kinase C stimulant phorbol myristate acetate (1 μM) increased CYP19A1 mRNA levels by 1.8- and 1.6-fold, respectively, as well as inducing aromatase catalytic activity. Dexamethasone (100 nM) and vascular endothelial growth factor (5 ng/mL) decreased CYP19A1 mRNA levels, while having no effect on aromatase activity. Our results emphasize the importance of not solely studying CYP19A1 regulation and function at the mRNA level but also considering posttranslational mechanisms that alter the final catalytic activity of aromatase.

    Abstract Steroid hormones are essential for maintenance of pregnancy and fetal development. The expression and catalytic activity of the key steroidogenic enzymes involved in the production of progesterone and estrogens increase during pregnancy, and there is an intricate communication between the mother, the placenta, and the fetus in order to maintain a balanced supply of the steroid hormones essential for embryogenesis. This chapter describes methods for the measurement of the expression and catalytic activity of three key cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes involved in the production of progesterone and estrogens, aromatase (CYP19), steroid 17-hydroxylase/17,20-lyase (CYP17), and cholesterol side-chain cleavage (CYP11A).

    Abstract Estrogens are produced in large amounts during pregnancy, as a result of a tightly regulated cooperation between the maternal and fetal adrenal cortex, which produce androgen precursors, and the placental villous trophoblast, which transforms these precursors into estrogens. These estrogens play an important role in proper placental function, in adaptation of the mother to pregnancy, as well as in adequate fetal development. Disruption of estrogen production is associated with poor pregnancy outcomes and fetal malformation or altered fetal programming. Pregnant women may be exposed to endocrine disruptors from environmental sources or medications, and it is crucial to study the effects of such compounds on feto-placental steroidogenesis. The H295R/BeWo co-culture model offers the opportunity to study these interactions, by making it possible to evaluate the effects of chemical exposures on androgen and estrogen biosynthesis, as well as on various other aspects of feto-placental communication.

    Abstract Introduction: Between 2 and 10% of pregnant women are treated with selective serotonin-reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) for depression. The extravillous trophoblasts (evTBs), which migrate and invade maternal tissues, are crucial for embryo implantation and remodeling of maternal spiral arteries. Poor migration/invasion of evTBs can cause serious pregnancy complications, yet the effects of SSRIs on these processes has never been studied. To determine the effects of five SSRIs (fluoxetine, norfluoxetine, citalopram, sertraline and venlafaxine) on migration/invasion, we used JEG-3 and HIPEC cells as evTB models.
    Methods: Cells were treated with increasing concentrations (0.03-10 μM) of SSRIs. Cell proliferation was monitored using an impedance-based system and cell cycle by flow cytometry. Migration was determined using a scratch test, and metalloproteinase (MMP) activities, by zymography. Invasion markers were determined by RT-qPCR.
    Results: Fluoxetine and sertraline (10 μM) significantly decreased cell proliferation by 94% and by 100%, respectively, in JEG-3 cells, and by 58.6% and 100%, respectively, in HIPEC cells. Norfluoxetine increased MMP-9 activity in JEG-3 cells by 2.0% at 0.03 μM and by 43.9% at 3 μM, but decreased MMP-9 activity in HIPEC cells by 63.7% at 3 μM. Sertraline at 0.03 μM increased mRNA level of TIMP-1 in JEG-3 cells by 36% and that of ADAM-10 by 85% and 115% at 0.3 and 3 μM, respectively. In HIPEC cells, venlafaxine at 0.03 and 0.3 μM, increased ADAM-10 mRNA levels by 156% and 167%, respectively.
    Discussion: This study shows that SSRIs may affect evTBs homeostasis at therapeutic levels and provides guidance for future research.
