Biased Signaling and Allosteric Modulation at the FSHR [PDF]
Knowledge on G protein-coupled receptor (GPCRs) structure and mechanism of activation has profoundly evolved over the past years. The way drugs targeting this family of receptors are discovered and used has also changed.

Atlas of Fshr expression from novel reporter mice [PDF]
The FSH-FSHR pathway has been considered an essential regulator in reproductive development and fertility. But there has been emerging evidence of FSHR expression in extragonadal organs.

Extragonadal FSHR Expression and Function—Is It Real? [PDF]
Expression of the follicle-stimulating hormone receptor (FSHR), besides gonadal tissues, has recently been detected in several extragonadal normal and tumorous tissues, including different types of primary and metastatic cancer and tumor vessel ...

FSH stimulates lipid biosynthesis in chicken adipose tissue by upregulating the expression of its receptor FSHR [PDF]
Transcripts and protein for follicle-stimulating hormone receptor (FSHR) were demonstrated in abdominal adipose tissue of female chickens. There was no expression of the Fsh gene, but FSH and FSHR colocalized, suggesting that FSH was receptor bound ...

Inadequate detection of the FSHR complicates future research on extragonadal FSHR localization
IntroductionRecently, follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) through interaction with its receptor (FSHR) has been proposed to play a role in postmenopausal osteoporosis and cardiovascular disease, rather than the loss of estrogen. To explore this hypothesis,

Differential FSH Glycosylation Modulates FSHR Oligomerization and Subsequent cAMP Signaling [PDF]
Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and its target G protein-coupled receptor (FSHR) are essential for reproduction. Recent studies have established that the hypo-glycosylated pituitary FSH glycoform (FSH21/18), is more bioactive in vitro and in vivo than

Targeted destruction of follicle stimulating hormone receptor-positive cancer cells in vitro and in vivo by a lytic peptide Phor21-FSHβ conjugate [PDF]
Background Extragonadal follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) receptor (FSHR) expression in various cancers and their endothelial vessel cells has highlighted novel opportunities for targeted FSHR therapy.

Differential Expression of LHR and FSHR in Canine Mammary Tumors: Correlation with Malignancy and Spay Status [PDF]
Canine mammary tumors (CMTs) constitute one of the most prevalent malignancies in female canines, whereas the functional involvement of gonadotropin receptors—luteinizing hormone receptor (LHR) and follicle-stimulating hormone receptor (FSHR)—in these ...

Atenolol increases dental mineralization in male offspring of treated hypertensive rats and normotensive rats [PDF]
This study evaluates how atenolol affects dental mineralization in offspring of female spontaneously hypertensive rats (fSHR) and normotensive Wistar rats (fW). fSHR and fW were treated with atenolol (100 mg/Kg/day, orally) during pregnancy and lactation.
