Аннотация
Гипоталамо-гипофизарно-гонадная (ГГГ, гонадная) ось отвечает за регуляцию репродуктивных функций, а ее активность регулируется множеством гормонов, включая лептин и инсулин. Их ключевой мишенью являются гипоталамические нейроны, экспрессирующие гонадолиберин (GnRH), регулирующий секрецию гонадотропинов и контролирующий тем самым половое созревание и фертильность. Основной функцией лептина и инсулина в гипоталамусе является осуществление функциональной взаимосвязи между доступностью энергетических ресурсов и их расходом, с одной стороны, и репродукцией, определяемой в том числе активностью GnRH-нейронов, с другой. Воздействие лептина и инсулина на GnRH-нейроны, как правило, носит опосредованный характер и реализуется через другие гипоталамические нейроны, что обеспечивает более тонкую, многоуровневую регуляцию их активности. Мишенями лептина и инсулина являются различные типы экспрессирующих кисспептин (Kiss1) нейронов, а также нейроны, экспрессирующие проопиомеланокортин (POMC), прекурсор анорексигенных меланокортиновых пептидов, и орексигенные факторы – агути-подобный пептид (AgRP) и нейропептид Y (NPY). Через Kiss1‑ и POMC‑нейроны осуществляется позитивная регуляция GnRH-нейронов, в то время как AgRP/NPY-нейроны вовлечены преимущественно в их негативную регуляцию. Выраженность эффектов лептина и инсулина на Kiss1‑, POMC‑ и AgRP/NPY‑нейроны и в конечном счете на GnRH‑нейроны и ГГГ‑ось в целом зависит от физиологического состояния организма, включая его метаболический статус, стадию полового созревания, пол. Эти эффекты подвержены значительным изменениям при ожирении и сахарном диабете 2‑го типа, внося существенный вклад в этиологию и патогенез ассоциированных с ними репродуктивных расстройств. Настоящий обзор посвящен рассмотрению современного состояния проблемы инсулиновой и лептиновой регуляции гипоталамического звена ГГГ‑оси в норме и при патологии, а также нерешенным проблемам в этой области. Расшифровка молекулярных основ такой регуляции открывает широкие перспективы для разработки новых фармакологических подходов, направленных на восстановление репродуктивных функций при ожирении и диабетической патологии.
