Use of model organisms and in vitro techniques relevant to developmental biology and medicine are acceptable, as are translational human studies.Kirkland, RebeccaTenore, AlfredVaidya, VanithaParks, John SBongiovanni, Alfred MPediatric Research
The subjects who received LRF, 50-100 ugs IV, had hypopituitarism, intrasellar mucocoele (A); constitutional delay, normal female (B); delayed puberty & anosmia, anorchia & encephalocoele (C); obesity (D); anorexia nervosa (E) & gonadal dysgenesis (F).A prepubertal hypopit had FSH ...
Inhibin did not inhibit LH release from the pituitary, but LH release stimulated by LH-RH was also inhibited by inhibin in vitro. Using anti-porcine inhibin antibody and anti bovine inhibin antibody prepared by us, we could measure blood inhibin levels during rat, pig, cow and goat sexual ...
Testosterone production in the interstitial cells of Leydig is stimulated by: a) Follicle-stimulating hormone b) Relaxin c) Inhibin d) Luteinizing hormone e) Progesterone Which of the following hormones is improperly paired with its effect? (a) TSH - thyrocalci...
LH is responsible for stimulation of steroidogenesis in the ovarian follicle and for ovulation in the ovary previously stimulated by FSH and the transformation of the graafian follicles into corpora lutea. After ovulation, under the influence of LH, some granulosa cells increase in size and undergo...
Hormone secreted by the hypothalamus that stimulated the release of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and lutenizing hormone (LH) from the anterior pituitary. Triggers the inset of puberty: ___ Which pituitary hormone(s) targets the adrenal gland? What is a ...
prolactin-releasing hormoneany of various hormones elaborated by thehypothalamusthat stimulate the release ofprolactinby the anteriorpituitary gland. Most such activity is exerted byvasoactive intestinal polypeptide, although in humansthyrotropin-releasinghormonecan also have this action. ...
FSH is a glycoprotein secreted by the basophilic cells of the anterior pituitary. Gonadotropin-release hormone (GnRH), produced in the hypothalamus, controls the release of FSH from anterior pituitary. Like other glycoproteins, such as LH, TSH, and hCG, FSH consists of subunits designated as ...
is called a secondary follicle and it remains growing inside the multiple layers of the follicle. After a while, follicular layers rupture to release a mature ovum from the ovary which will be swaped into the fallopian tube. The follicle cells inside the ova...
These in vitro data were confirmed by in vivo experiments using anti-androgens. Sertoli cell culture medium was found to be a potent inhibitor of spontaneous FSH secretion while no effect was detected on LH release. When the gonadotropin response to LHRH was studied, Sertoli cell culture medium ...
