P-17: Expression of Cell Surface Toll-Like Receptors in the Human Male Reproductive Tract
Background: Male infertility refers to the inability of a male to achieve a pregnancy in a fertile female. The root of many causes of infertility is miscommunication between immune and reproductive system. Male reproductive system is very sensitive and vulnerable, infections can hinder maturation and movement of spermatozoa lead to impaired fertility.All species need an immediate reply to the m...
متن کاملRestricted Diffusion of Luteinizing Hormone Receptors
Single particle tracking was used to evaluate lateral motions of individual FLAGtagged human luteinizing hormone (LH) receptors expressed on Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells and native LH receptors on both KGN human granulosa-derived tumor cells and M17 human neuroblastoma cells before and after exposure to human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG). Compared to LH receptors on untreated cells, LH rec...
متن کاملLuteinizing hormone receptors: specific binding of human luteinizing hormone to homogenates of luteinized rat ovaries.
Binding of human [(125)I]luteinizing hormone to homogenates of luteinized rat ovaries is dependent upon time, temperature, and pH and is saturable. Injection of human chorionic gonadotropin in vivo or addition of unlabeled human chorionic gonadotropin or human or ovine luteinizing hormone in vitro inhibits binding, whereas follicle stimulating hormone or prolactin is without effect. The dissoci...
متن کاملHuman malignant melanomas express receptors for luteinizing hormone releasing hormone allowing targeted therapy with cytotoxic luteinizing hormone releasing hormone analogue.
Cytotoxic analogue of luteinizing hormone releasing hormone (LHRH), AN-207, binds with high affinity to LHRH receptors and can be targeted to tumors expressing these receptors. We investigated the expression of LHRH receptors in surgical specimens of human malignant melanoma and evaluated the effects of AN-207 in models of human melanoma. Human melanoma specimens derived from primary tumors or ...
متن کاملCan fasting in the holy month of Ramadan affect on the levels of luteinizing hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone, and prolactin?
Adherence to the recommendations and obligations of Islam is of great importance in achieving a desirable lifestyle. Fasting in the holy month of Ramadan is one of the main principles of Islam, in which Muslims refrain from eating, drinking, oral medications, and smoking from Fajr (pre-dawn) to Maghrib (sunset). Islamic rules dictate that fasting is unacceptable if it causes harm to the health ...
