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.

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.

Detection of FSH receptors in mouse and human penile tissue [PDF]
Background: This study aims to investigate the expression of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) receptors in both mouse and human penis to explore its potential impact on penis function.

Effect of FSH on testicular morphology and spermatogenesis in gonadotrophin-deficient hypogonadal mice lacking androgen receptors [PDF]
Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and androgen act to stimulate and maintain spermatogenesis. FSH acts directly on the Sertoli cells to stimulate germ cell number and acts indirectly to increase androgen production by the Leydig cells.

The response to FSH treatment in oligozoospermic men depends on FSH receptor gene polymorphisms [PDF]
In the last years, follice-stimulating hormone (FSH) receptor (FSHR) gene polymorphisms have been studied as potential risk factors for spermatogenetic failure. In this study, we have evaluated the response of FSH treatment in terms of sperm production on the basis of Ala307Thr-Asn680Ser polymorphisms in the FSHR gene in a group of oligozoospermic ...

Profile of follicle-stimulating hormone and polymorphism of follicle-stimulating hormone receptor in Madrasin cattle with ovarian hypofunction [PDF]
Background and Aim: The follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) gene is an essential regulator of fertility in livestock. This study aims to provide information on the genetic makeup of Madrasin cattle experiencing hypofunction by the FSH profile and FSH ...

Functional Expression of FSH Receptor in Endometriotic Lesions [PDF]
FSH receptor (FSHR), besides being expressed in gonads, is also expressed in some extragonadal tissues at low levels.We examined the functional expression of FSHR in different types of endometriotic lesions.Extensive studies were carried out to detect functional FSHR expression and FSH-stimulated estrogen production in ovarian endometriomas and recto ...

Extra-Gonadal and Non-Canonical Effects of FSH in Males
Recombinant follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) is commonly used for the treatment of female infertility and is increasingly being used in males as well, as recommended by notable guidelines.
