Follicle stimulating hormone as a predictor of fertility

Current Opinion in Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 1998
Tests for diminished ovarian reserve provide valuable prognostic information for women considering assisted reproductive technology. The best characterized screening tool for a general infertility patient is the clomiphene citrate challenge test. These screening tests do not have absolute sensitivity or specificity.

Induction of ovulation with purified urinary follicle-stimulating hormone in patients with polycystic ovarian syndrome

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1985
Purified urinary follicle-stimulating hormone was used to induce ovulation in 18 patients with polycystic ovarian syndrome. Each ampule contained 75 IU of follicle-stimulating hormone and less than 0.11 IU of luteinizing hormone.

Regulation of Follicle-Stimulating Hormone Receptor

Hormone Research, 2008
The acquisition of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) receptors during folliculogenesis is believed to be a key event in follicle development. We have examined the effects of FSH and activin on FSH receptor mRNA in cultured rat granulosa cells. Treatment of granulosa cells with FSH resulted in transient suppression of the FSH receptor mRNA levels 2-6 h

Follicle-stimulating-hormone receptor and twinning

The Lancet, 2001
Sir—Ayman Al-Hendy and colleagues report on the association between mutations of the follicle-stimulatinghormone receptor (FSHR) (Sept 9, p 914) and repeated twinning. They describe a woman, bearing two mutations in the receptor, one change at position 307 (alanine to threonine) and the other with a change at position 680 (asparagine to serine), who ...

Biosynthesis and Secretion of Follicle-Stimulating Hormone*

Endocrine Reviews, 1983
THE ANTERIOR pituitary gland synthesizes and secretes three glycoprotein hormones. Two of these, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) are termed gonadotropins and exert divergent effects upon the gonads to regulate and maintain essential reproductive processes such as gametogenesis, steroidogenesis, and ovulation.

Follicle-Stimulating Hormone Stimulates Spermatogenesis in the Adult Monkey*

Endocrinology, 1988
A 2-fold increase in the numbers of germinal cells was observed in the seminiferous epithelium of cynomolgus monkeys treated with 15 IU FSH twice a day during 28 days. No effect was seen after 7 days of treatment. After 16 days only the numbers of Apale (Ap) spermatogonia had increased to 200% of the control level while the numbers of B spermatogonia ...

SIMULTANEOUS RADIOIMMUNOASSAY OF LUTEINIZING HORMONE AND FOLLICLE-STIMULATING HORMONE

Journal of Endocrinology, 1978
The Medical Unit, The Princess Margaret Hospital, Christchurch 2, New Zealand (Revised manuscript received 21 August 1978) The frequent clinical and research requirement for measurement of both plasma luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) has prompted the development of a simultaneous radioimmunoassay for these two

Follicle Stimulating Hormone

1994
A glycopeptide (M.Wt. 32 KDa) containing about 18% carbohydrate. In common with other pituitary hormones TSH, LH and the placental hormone hCG, it comprises a- and β-subunits, the α-subunit being common to all 4 peptide hormones. Biological activity is lost on dissociation of the subunits.
