Follicle-Stimulating Hormone Increases the Risk of Postmenopausal Osteoporosis by Stimulating Osteoclast Differentiation

PLoS ONE, 2015
Objective The objectives of this study were to observe the changes in follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and bone mineral density (BMD) in postmenopausal women, to research the relationship between FSH and postmenopausal osteoporosis, and to observe the ...

Fractionation of the Swine Follicle Stimulating Hormone

Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1953
Summary1. A simple method has been developed for the recovery of FSH from residues resulting from the acid acetone extraction of swine pituitary glands. 2. The biological activity of the preparations obtained compare favorably with those of other investigators.

Disruption of Zebrafish Follicle-Stimulating Hormone Receptor (fshr) But Not Luteinizing Hormone Receptor (lhcgr) Gene by TALEN Leads to Failed Follicle Activation in Females Followed by Sexual Reversal to Males.

Endocrinology, 2015
Gonadotropins are primary hormones that control vertebrate reproduction. In a recent study, we analyzed the impacts of FSH and LH on zebrafish reproduction by disrupting FSH and LH-β genes (fshb and lhb) using transcription activator-like effector ...

Sex-specific regulation of follicle-stimulating hormone secretion by synaptotagmin 9

Nature Communications, 2015
The anterior pituitary releases six different hormones that control virtually all aspects of vertebrate physiology, yet the molecular mechanisms underlying their Ca2+-triggered release remain unknown.

Evidence for Follicle-stimulating Hormone Receptor as a Functional Trimer

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2014
Background: A carbohydrate of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) has been proposed to sterically block other FSH molecules from binding to the putative receptor (FSHR) trimer.

Acupuncture for hormonal readiness and gut microbiota in obese polycystic ovary syndrome: an open-label, randomized controlled trial

Frontiers in Endocrinology
ObjectiveTo explore whether acupuncture combined with clomiphene can reduce the luteinizing hormone-to follicle-stimulating hormone ratio and impact the gut microbiota in patients with obese polycystic ovary syndrome.MethodsThis open-label, randomized ...
