Smad3 Is Required for Normal Follicular Follicle-Stimulating Hormone Responsiveness in the Mouse1 [PDF]
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. The intersection of signal transduction pathways that integrate the follicular response to FSH remains to be elucidated. Herein, we investigated the role of Smad3, a

Effects of profound suppression of luteinizing hormone during ovarian stimulation on follicular activity, oocyte and embryo function in cycles stimulated with purified follicle stimulating hormone [PDF]
The effects of profound suppression of circulating luteinizing hormone (LH) during the follicular phase of in-vitro fertilization cycles were explored in normal women during treatment with a gonadotrophin-releasing hormone analogue and exogenous purified follicle stimulating hormone.
