Ovarian response to FSH stimulation depends on the FSH receptor genotype. [PDF]

The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2000
Because the ovarian response to FSH stimulation in assisted reproduction is variable, ranging from hyporesponse to hyperresponse, with the possible complication of ovarian hyperstimulation, it would be of great benefit to predict the response of the patients to FSH. To date, no clear-cut predictors of ovarian responsiveness to FSH have been identified.

Effective Mobilization of Very Small Embryonic-Like Stem Cells and Hematopoietic Stem/Progenitor Cells but Not Endothelial Progenitor Cells by Follicle-Stimulating Hormone Therapy

Stem Cells International, 2016
Recently, murine hematopoietic progenitor stem cells (HSCs) and very small embryonic-like stem cells (VSELs) were demonstrated to express receptors for sex hormones including follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH).

Follitropin (FSH) and a phorbol ester stimulate the phosphorylation of the FSH receptor in intact cells.

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1994
Using a cell line stably transfected with the rat follitropin (FSH) receptor cDNA we demonstrate that the FSH receptor becomes phosphorylated when cells are exposed to FSH. Since binding of FSH to its receptor results in an increase in cAMP and inositol phosphate accumulation, we examined the potential involvement of protein kinase A and C in mediating

Association of Human Follitropin (FSH) Receptor with Splicing Variant of Human Lutropin/Choriogonadotropin Receptor Negatively Controls the Expression of Human FSH Receptor [PDF]

Molecular Endocrinology, 2005
Abstract A splice variant of human lutropin (LH)/choriogonadotropin (CG)-receptor [hLHR(exon 9)] that lacks exon 9 was previously cloned in the corpus luteum of a woman with a normal menstrual cycle. Supported by a detergent-soluble binding assay and a receptor biotinylation experiment, the receptor binding assay shows hLHR(exon 9) is ...

A preliminary analysis of the relationship between follicle-stimulating hormone and metabolic parameters in postmenopausal women

Gynecological Endocrinology
After menopause, women have a higher risk of developing metabolic disorders. The discovery of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) receptors in extra-ovarian tissues such as the adipose tissue suggests that FSH might influence metabolic processes in ...

Identification of differential gene expression in in vitro FSH treated pig granulosa cells using suppression subtractive hybridization

Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2006
FSH, which binds to specific receptors on granulosa cells in mammals, plays a key role in folliculogenesis. Its biological activity involves stimulation of intercellular communication and upregulation of steroidogenesis, but the entire spectrum of the ...

Expression of the gonadotropin receptors during follicular development

Reproductive Medicine and Biology, 2018
Background Gonadotropins induce follicular development that leads to ovulation and luteinization. In women, the level of gonadotropins, along with the expression of their receptors, changes dynamically throughout the menstrual cycle.
