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.

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.

Previous studies in the 1960s and 1970s have reported that both gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) and estradiol-activated nuclear estrogen receptors regulate gonadotropin secretion in women.

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.

Previous studies have found follicle‐stimulating hormone (FSH) receptors on chondrocytes (cartilage cells), but the mechanism of FSH action on chondrocytes is not clear.

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-

Effects of FSH on testicular mRNA transcript levels in the hypogonadal mouse [PDF]
Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) acts through the Sertoli cell to ensure normal testicular development and function. To identify transcriptional mechanisms through which FSH acts in the testis we have treated gonadotrophin-deficient hypogonadal (hpg ...

Direct action through the Sertoli cells is essential for androgen stimulation of spermatogenesis [PDF]
Androgens act to stimulate spermatogenesis through androgen receptors (AR) on the Sertoli cells and peritubular myoid cells (PTM). Specific ablation of the AR in either cell type will cause a severe disruption of spermatogenesis.
