Collins Dictionary of Biology, 3rd ed. © W. G. Hale, V. A. Saunders, J. P. Margham 2005 Luteinizing hormone (LH) A hormone secreted by the pituitary gland that regulates the menstrual cycle and triggers ovulation in females. In males it stimulates the testes to produce testosterone....
Full size image Treatment by gonadotropins induced pErk1/2 activation in different concentration ranges, compared to untreated cells (LH = 100 pM-100 nM; hCG = 10 pM-100 nM; two-way Anova and Bonferroni post-test; P < 0.05; n = 5). The comparison between LH- and ...
FL, full-length; LIM, LIM domains; Hom, homeodomain. (e) Bar graphs showing the differences in SEAP activity under the control of the Espn promoter (Espn-pm-SEAP) when different forms of Lhx1 (left) and Lhx5 (right) proteins were coexpressed. Analysis of variance (ANOVA); ***Po0.001...
Violin plots are scaled to the same area and show density for the full set of points over the full range. i, mOSN ChIP–seq for LDB1, CTCF and RAD21 across the OR gene cluster containing the Greek island Lipsi. OR genes are red and all other genes are blue. Plot shows pooled ...
Forest plot of weight mean difference for the number of oocytes retrieved in rFSH + rLH versus rFSH alone treatment Full size image Number of metaphase II oocytes Two RCTs [7, 9] and one cohort study [43], for a total of 257 subjects, were pooled. Additional file 5: Figure S1). ...
This EcoRI–SalI fragment containing the stem-loop deletion was also subcloned into plasmid pRKEH10X− [22], which encodes pufQBALM, but has a deletion of the pufX gene, to form plasmid pΔTΔX. Download: Download full-size image Fig. 1. Top: arrangement of the wild-type puf ...
Download: Download full-size image Fig. 3. Deficiency of corticotropes corresponds to reduced expression of TPIT and NEUROD1 in Lhx3 mutant pituitaries. (A–F) TPIT and (G–J) NEUROD1 are detected in pituitaries from wild type and Lhx3 engineered null mice with immunohistochemistry and lab...
Full size image The N-terminal region of PufX (Ala2-Pro15) is well resolved in the Class-1 dimeric structure, revealing that residues Ile6-Asp9 interact with LH1-1αβ of the other monomer via hydrogen bonds and salt bridges (Fig. 2c, Table S4). The N-terminal domain of the TM ...
a full 1400 base pair (bp) length of the 16S rDNA gene sequence is generated using primers identified herein and compared by sequence homology to a database of known rDNA sequences of known microorganisms. This comparison is then used for identification of pure cultures for use in enhanced oi...
These types of cell supports enable the serial transfer of the nylon raft with its associated microspore/embryoids ultimately to full strength medium containing activated charcoal and solidified with, for example, GELRITE™ (solidifying agent). The liquid medium passes through the mesh while the ...
