Follicle-Stimulating Hormone-Secreting Pituitary Adenomas [PDF]
This retrospective study concerns 40 patients with an apparently nonsecretory pituitary adenoma who were operated on during an 11-yr period from 1971 to 1981. Among them, 6 men had elevated serum FSH levels. LH levels were normal in 5 and slightly elevated in 1. Testosterone levels were low in 2 patients and within normal limits in 2 others.

Luteinizing hormone concentrations in healthy horses and horses with trigeminal-mediated headshaking over an 8-hour period. [PDF]
BackgroundTrigeminal-mediated headshaking results from a low threshold for firing of the trigeminal nerve. A seasonal component has been implicated in onset of clinical signs, which occur during the spring and summer months.

Consequences of twinning induction to Noemi ewes by a recombinant human follicle-stimulating hormone compared with pituitary-derived porcine follicle-stimulating hormone on follicular dynamics, maternal biochemical attributes, and neonatal traits [PDF]
Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of using recombinant human follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) compared with pituitary-derived porcine FSH given as one dose or multiple doses on the neonatal traits, follicular dynamics, and

A case of hypogonadtropic hypogonadism due to hypophysitis discovered by secondary male infertility
Introduction The main causes of secondary male infertility are varicocele and aging. It is rarely caused by adult‐onset hypopituitarism. The onset of hypopituitarism is often due to brain tumors, trauma, surgery, or congenital disorders.

Bioactive follicle-stimulating hormone [PDF]
Abstract Specific and sensitive in vitro bioassays suitable for measurement of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) in small quantities of serum and urine have recently been validated. Comparisons of bioassay (B-FSH) potencies with immunoassay (I-FSH) estimates and chromatofocusing patterns have facilitated new discoveries regarding the regulation of ...
