RETRACTED ARTICLE: Follicle stimulating hormone modulates ovarian stem cells through alternately spliced receptor variant FSH-R3 [PDF]
Background We have earlier reported that follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) modulates ovarian stem cells which include pluripotent, very small embryonic-like stem cells (VSELs) and their immediate descendants ‘progenitors’ termed ovarian germ stem cells (

β-Arrestin 1 Differentially Modulates cAMP and ERK Pathways Downstream of the FSH Receptor [PDF]
This study compared the gonadotropin gene sequences (LH and FSH subunits) of Cynomolgus and Rhesus monkeys and produced recombinant single-chain LHβ/α and FSHβ/α proteins. The α- and FSHβ-subunit sequences were identical between species, while LHβ showed

Changes of FSH and LH receptors expressions in rat testis after methamphetamine exposure [PDF]
Methamphetamine (METH), the most widely used psychostimulant in Thailand, has been reported to have harmful effects on testicular functions and sperm quality, but its mechanisms are still unclear.

FSH Actions and Pregnancy: Looking Beyond Ovarian FSH Receptors [PDF]
By mediating estrogen synthesis and follicular growth in response to FSH, the ovarian FSH receptor (FSHR) is essential for female fertility. Indeed, ovarian stimulation via administration of FSH to women with infertility is part of the primary therapeutic intervention used in assisted reproductive technology.

Improvement of fertility parameters with Tribulus Terrestris and Anacyclus Pyrethrum treatment in male rats [PDF]
Objective Anacyclus Pyrethrum (AP) and Tribulus Terrestris (TT) have been reported as male infertility treatment in several studies; however, in Iranian traditional medicine these two plants are prescribed simultaneously.

Using Evolutionary Genomics to Discover Hormones and Receptors
All human genes have undergone hundreds of millions of years of evolution to have today’s sequences and associated functions. At the same time, ligands and receptors have also undergone co-evolution.

Effect of Estrogen Progesterone LH and FSH on Oxidant and Antioxidant Parameters in Rat Uterine Tissue [PDF]
Background To attain whether the effects of low and high doses of estrogen progesterone luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) in acute and chronic administration were related to oxidant and antioxidant parameters in rat uterine ...

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

Molecular pathology of the FSH receptor: New insights into FSH physiology [PDF]
Manipulations of mouse genome have helped to elucidate gonadotrophin function but important differences subsist between rodent and human reproduction. Studies of patients with mutations of gonadotrophins or gonadotrophin receptors genes allow understanding their physiological effects in humans.
