Species-specific differences in follicular antral sizes result from diffusion-based limitations on the thickness of the granulosa cell layer

, 2013
The size of mature oocytes is similar across mammalian species, yet the size of ovarian follicles increases with species size, with some ovarian follicles reaching diameters more than 1000-fold the size of the enclosed oocyte.

Postendocytotic Trafficking of the Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH)-FSH Receptor Complex [PDF]

Molecular Endocrinology, 2003
AbstractAlthough the fates of the internalized hormone-receptor complexes formed by the lutropin/choriogonadotropin and the TSH receptors have been examined in some detail, much less is known about the fate of the internalized FSH-FSH receptor (FSHR) complex.Using biochemical and imaging approaches we show here that the majority of the internalized FSH-

IGF1R signaling is necessary for FSH-induced activation of AKT and differentiation of human Cumulus granulosa cells.

Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2014
CONTEXT FSH is routinely administered to in vitro fertilization patients to induce follicle maturation. During this process, granulosa cells differentiate and acquire specific functional characteristics that are required to coordinate ovulation and ...

Ethnomedicinal Uses, Phytochemistry, Pharmacological Activities, and Toxicology of the Subfamily Gomphrenoideae (Amaranthaceae): A Comprehensive Review

Chemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The subfamily Gomphrenoideae is composed of about 480 accepted species, many of which have been historically used as medicinal plants, reason why they have been studied in terms of chemical profile, biological activity, and safety. This review consolidates the advances in research on this subfamily over the past 47 years, emphasizing its ...

Signaling through FSH receptors on human umbilical vein endothelial cells promotes angiogenesis.

Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2014
CONTEXT The FSH receptor (FSHR) is traditionally thought to play a role in female reproductive physiology solely within the context of ovarian FSHR. However, FSHR is also expressed in endothelial cells of the placental vasculature and human umbilical ...
