Serum müllerian-inhibiting substance in Down's syndrome pregnancies.
BACKGROUND To examine whether maternal serum levels of müllerian-inhibiting substance (MIS) differ in Down's syndrome and unaffected pregnancies. METHODS Case-control study was conducted using stored serum from an antenatal screening programme. Sera from 25 Down's syndrome pregnancies were retrieved from -20 degrees C storage together with 125 unaffected controls individually matched for mate...
متن کاملProspective Case–Control Study of Serum Müllerian Inhibiting Substance and Breast Cancer Risk
BACKGROUND Müllerian inhibiting substance (MIS) is a member of the transforming growth factor beta family of growth and differentiation factors that inhibits elongation and branching of mammary ducts and has been shown to inhibit mammary tumor growth in vitro and in animal models. The objective of this study was to determine whether serum MIS levels are associated with breast cancer risk. MET...
متن کاملMüllerian Inhibiting Substance lowers testosterone in luteinizing hormone-stimulated rodents.
Müllerian Inhibiting Substance (MIS) expression is inversely proportional to the serum concentration of testosterone in males after birth and in vitro studies have shown that MIS can lower testosterone production by Leydig cells. Also, mice overexpressing MIS exhibited Leydig cell hypoplasia and lower levels of serum testosterone, but it is not clear whether this is a result of MIS affecting th...
متن کاملThe expression of Müllerian inhibiting substance/anti-Müllerian hormone type II receptor in myoma and adenomyosis
Objective We compared the expression levels of Müllerian inhibiting substance (MIS)/anti-Müllerian hormone type II receptor (AMHRII) in uterine myoma and adenomyosis to evaluate the possibility of using MIS/anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) as a biological regulator or therapeutic agent in patients with uterine leiomyoma and adenomyosis. Methods We studied normal uterine myometrium, leiomyoma, end...
متن کاملMüllerian inhibiting substance/anti-Müllerian hormone: A novel treatment for gynecologic tumors
Müllerian inhibiting substance (MIS), also called anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH), is a member of the transforming growth factor-β super-family of growth and differentiation response modifiers. It is produced in immature Sertoli cells in male embryos and binds to MIS/AMH receptors in primordial Müllerian ducts to cause regression of female reproductive structures that are the precursors to the fal...
