Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2021 Caudal Type Homeobox 2 (CDX2) is a key regulator of trophectoderm formation and maintenance in preimplantation embryos. We previously demonstrated that supplementation of exogenous follistatin, during in vitro culture of bovine IVF embryos, upregulates ...

Activins, follistatin and immunoregulation in the epididymis [PDF]
Andrology, 2019 AbstractBackgroundThe interface between the epididymis and the immune system is implicated in many male reproductive pathologies. The resident immune cell populations and immune‐environment within the epididymis are significantly different from the testis, which is an immune‐privileged site. Moreover, the immune cell subsets and immunological responses

Role of IGF-I in follistatin-induced skeletal muscle hypertrophy [PDF]
, 2015 Follistatin, a physiological inhibitor of myostatin, induces a dramatic increase in skeletal muscle mass, requiring the type 1 IGF-I receptor/Akt/mTOR pathway.

Follistatin is induced by ionizing radiation and potentially predictive of radiosensitivity in radiation-induced fibrosis patient derived fibroblasts. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Follistatin is a potent regulator of the inflammatory response and binds to and inhibits activin A action. Activin A is a member of the TGFβ protein superfamily which has regulatory roles in the inflammatory response and in the fibrotic process. Fibrosis

Inhibins, activins and follistatin in reproduction [PDF]
Human Reproduction Update, 2002 The regulation of reproductive processes involves a complex network of communication systems between the brain, endocrine organs, the gonads and other reproductive tissues. Classically, our understanding has focused on the role of endocrine hormones, but more recently interest has also dwelt on the paracrine and autocrine regulation of these cell ...
