Pharmacogenetics of follicle-stimulating hormone action [PDF]
To review the current knowledge of genetic variants in the two genes affecting the individual responsiveness to follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) action-the FSH beta-subunit (FSHB) and the FSH receptor (FSHR), as well as the pharmacogenetic ramifications of the findings.Four common variants in the FSHB and the FSHR genes were shown to exhibit ...

Definition and Measurement of Follicle Stimulating Hormone [PDF]
AbstractFSH has a key role in the development and function of the reproductive system and is widely used both diagnostically and therapeutically in developmental and reproductive medicine. The accurate measurement of FSH levels, in patients for diagnosis and monitoring and in therapeutic preparations for clinical use, is essential for safe and ...

Ovarian reserve and anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) in mothers of dizygotic twins [PDF]
This study aimed to explore if natural dizygotic (DZ) twinning is associated with earlier menopause and lower anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) values. We investigated if advanced biological reproductive aging, which can be responsible for the multiple ...

Responsiveness of bovine cumulus-oocyte-complexes (COC) to porcine and recombinant human FSH, and the effect of COC quality on gonadotropin receptor and Cx43 marker gene mRNAs during maturation in vitro [PDF]
Substantially less development to the blastocyst stage occurs in vitro than in vivo and this may be due to deficiencies in oocyte competence. Although a large proportion of bovine oocytes undergo spontaneous nuclear maturation, less is known about ...

Profile of follicle-stimulating hormone and polymorphism of follicle-stimulating hormone receptor in Madrasin cattle with ovarian hypofunction [PDF]
Background and Aim: The follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) gene is an essential regulator of fertility in livestock. This study aims to provide information on the genetic makeup of Madrasin cattle experiencing hypofunction by the FSH profile and FSH receptors (FSHR) polymorphism.

Low estrogen doses normalize testosterone and estradiol levels to the female range in transgender women [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: The ideal dosage of cross-sex hormones remains unknown. The aim of this study was to evaluate the luteinizing hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone, testosterone, estradiol and prolactin levels after low-dose estrogen therapy with or without ...

FGDB: Database of follicle stimulating hormone glycans
Glycomics, the study of the entire complement of sugars of an organism has received significant attention in the recent past due to the advances made in high throughput mass spectrometry technologies. These analytical advancements have facilitated the characterization of glycans associated with the follicle-stimulating hormones (FSH), which play a ...
