Basal luteinizing hormone and follicular stimulating hormone: is it sufficient for the diagnosis of precocious puberty in girls? [PDF]
Annals of Pediatric Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2013 PurposeA gonadotropin-releasing hormone stimulation test (GnRHST) is the gold standard in diagnosing central precocious puberty (CPP). The aim of this study was to investigate the diagnostic accuracy of basal gonadotropin levels for girls with suspected ...

A Follicular Stimulating Hormone Secreting Adenoma [PDF]
J Endocr Soc, 2021 A gonadotroph secreting pituitary adenoma, a rare endocrinopathy, is often overlooked due to ambiguous symptoms leading to other diagnoses, such as ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS). A 53 year old African American woman presented for evaluation of

Follicular expression of follicle stimulating hormone receptor variants in the ewe [PDF]
Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2013 BackgroundSeveral alternatively-spliced mRNA transcripts of the follicle stimulating hormone receptor (FSHR) have been identified in sheep, including FSHR-1 (G protein-coupled form), FSHR-2 (dominant negative form), and FSHR-3 (growth factor type-1 form).

Follicular Stimulating Hormone Accelerates Atherogenesis by Increasing Endothelial VCAM-1 Expression. [PDF]
Theranostics, 2017 Rationale: Postmenopausal atherosclerosis (AS) has for decades been attributed to estrogen deficiency. Although the follicular stimulating hormone (FSH) levels rise sharply in parallel, the direct effect of FSH on AS has never been investigated.

Re-determination of upper reference range of follicular stimulating hormone in infertile men [PDF]
Systems Biology in Reproductive Medicine, 2020 FSH in infertile patients may be measured in the normal range and abnormal semen analysis findings may be observed in patients with normal FSH values. A recent study predicts that the sperm morphology and concentration may be impaired if the FSH value is

Chinese Journal of Integrated Traditional and Western Medicine, 1995 Changes in follicular stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicular sizes were observed in 10 patients with chronic anovulation during electroacupuncture treatment. Seven cases were diagnosed as suffering from polycystic ovary syndrome, 2 from dysfunctional uterine bleeding, and 1 from hypogonadotropic amenorrhea.

Recombinant follicular stimulating hormone plus recombinant luteinizing hormone versus human menopausal gonadotropins- does the source of LH bioactivity affect ovarian stimulation outcome? [PDF]
Reprod Biol Endocrinol, 2021 Objective Luteinizing hormone (LH) and human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) activate distinct intracellular signaling cascades. However, due to their similar structure and common receptor, they are used interchangeably during ovarian stimulation (OS). This

Effect of follicle-stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone levels on egg-laying frequency in hens [PDF]
Veterinary World, 2022 Background and Aim: Gonadotropins, for example, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH), are hormones that affect the reproductive process.

Association between surges of follicle-stimulating hormone and the emergence of follicular waves in heifers. [PDF]
Reproduction, 1992 Summary. The effects of ablation of a dominant follicle and treatment with follicular fluid on circulating concentrations of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) were studied and the temporal relationships between surges of FSH and follicular waves were studied in heifers with two or three follicular waves/interovulatory interval.

Smad3 Is Required for Normal Follicular Follicle-Stimulating Hormone Responsiveness in the Mouse [PDF]
Biology of Reproduction, 2009 Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) is the major regulator of folliculogenesis, but other factors modulate its action, including members of the transforming growth factor (TGF) beta family.
