Estrous behavior in dairy cows: identification of underlying mechanisms and gene functions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Selection in dairy cattle for a higher milk yield has coincided with declined fertility. One of the factors is reduced expression of estrous behavior. Changes in systems that regulate the estrous behavior could be manifested by altered gene expression ...

PROPERTIES OF FOLLICLE–STIMULATING HORMONE–RECEPTOR INTERACTIONS. SPECIFIC BINDING OF HUMAN FOLLICLE–STIMULATING HORMONE TO RAT TESTES

open access: yesObstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 1974
Abstract Some properties of the interaction between radioiodinated human follicle stimulating hormone (125I-hFSH) and its specific receptors in preparations of rat seminiferous tubule homogenate are described. Specific binding of 125I-hFSH by seminiferous tubule homogenate was appreciably greater than to Leydig cell homogenate of rat testes. The uptake

Structural organization of the follicle-stimulating hormone receptor gene. [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Endocrinology, 1992
We have characterized a series of rat genomic clones that code for the FSH receptor (FSHR) gene and approximately 14.8 kilobases of DNA up-stream of the transcriptional start sites. Southern blot analysis indicated that there was only a single gene for the FSHR.

Copper and Iron‐Based Metal‐Organic Frameworks for Synergistic Cancer Phototherapies: Recent Advances, Challenges, and Future Prospects

open access: yesAdvanced Therapeutics, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract illustrates the combined effect of PTT and PDT using metal‐organic frameworks (MOFs) in a cancer treatment model. Tumor‐bearing mice are irradiated with different laser lights, which activate the MOF nanoparticles within cancer cells. The MOFs produce reactive oxygen species through PDT, while PTT elevates the temperature to kill

The Common Follicle-Stimulating Hormone Receptor (FSHR) Promoter Polymorphism FSHR −29G > A Affects Androgen Production in Normal Human Small Antral Follicles

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2017
Follicle-stimulating hormone receptors (FSHRs) are almost exclusively expressed on granulosa cells, and FSH action is probably most clearly reflected in intrafollicular hormone milieu of antral follicles. Little is known about the possible effects of the

The Role of the Brain in the Pathogenesis and Physiology of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS). [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common reproductive endocrine disorder, affecting at least 10% of women of reproductive age. PCOS is typically characterized by the presence of at least two of the three cardinal features of hyperandrogenemia (high ...

M2 Macrophages are Major Mediators of Germline Risk of Endometriosis and Explain Pleiotropy With Comorbid Traits

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Genes associated with endometriosis risk are highly expressed in M2 macrophages, particularly ligands IL1A and IL1B. Endometrial‐type epithelium and stroma are likely recipients of these ligands. While IL1B treatment disturbs epithelial organization, blockage of the signaling results in a dose‐dependent decrease in spontanesous and evoked pain, reduces

Antisense mRNA for NPY-Y1 receptor in the medial preoptic area increases prolactin secretion

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 1999
We investigated the participation of neuropeptide Y-Y1 receptors within the medial preoptic area in luteinizing hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone and prolactin release.

Gpr120 mRNA expression in gonadotropes in the mouse pituitary gland is regulated by free fatty acids

open access: yesThe Journal of Reproduction and Development, 2020
GPR120 is a long-chain fatty acid (LCFA) receptor that is specifically expressed in gonadotropes in the anterior pituitary gland in mice. The aim of this study was to investigate whether GPR120 is activated by free fatty acids in the pituitary of mice ...

Alternative splicing of follicle-stimulating hormone receptor pre-mRNA: cloning and characterization of two alternatively spliced mRNA transcripts [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Glycoprotein hormone receptors contain a large extracellular domain that is encoded by multiple exons, facilitating the possibility of expressing alternatively spliced transcripts.
