Hypo-glycosylated human follicle-stimulating hormone (hFSH21/18) is much more active in vitro than fully-glycosylated hFSH (hFSH24)
Hypo-glycosylated hFSH(21/18) (possesses FSHβ(21) and FSHβ(18)bands) was isolated from hLH preparations by immunoaffinity chromatography followed by gel filtration. Fully-glycosylated hFSH(24) was prepared by combining the fully-glycosylated FSHβ(24) variant with hCGα and isolating the heterodimer. The hFSH(21/18) glycoform preparation was significantly smaller than the hFSH(24) preparation and...
متن کاملRecombinant human follicle-stimulating hormone (r-hFSH) plus recombinant luteinizing hormone versus r-hFSH alone for ovarian stimulation during assisted reproductive technology: systematic review and meta-analysis
BACKGROUND The potential benefit of adding recombinant human luteinizing hormone (r-hLH) to recombinant human follicle-stimulating hormone (r-hFSH) during ovarian stimulation is a subject of debate, although there is evidence that it may benefit certain subpopulations, e.g. poor responders. METHODS A systematic review and a meta-analysis were performed. Three databases (MEDLINE, Embase and CE...
متن کاملSolubilization and some characteristics of the follitropin receptor from calf testis.
Immature calf testes were found to be an unusually rich source of follitropin (FSH) receptors. Particulate fractions derived from such testes bound 32% of added biologically active radiolabeled human FSH (12”I-labeled hFSH) and had a binding capacity of 52 x lo-l4 mol/mg of protein. These values are considerably higher than those previously reported for FSH receptors in other types of beef or m...
متن کاملProperties of follicle-stimulating hormone-receptor interactions. Specific binding of human follicle-stimulating hormone to rat testes.
Some properties of the interaction between radioiodinated human follicle stimulating hormone (lz51-hFSH) and its specific receptors in preparations of rat seminiferous tubule homogenate are described. Specific binding of lz51-hFSH by seminiferous tubule homogenate was appreciably greater than to Leydig cell homogenate of rat testes. The uptake of rz51-hFSH was hormone specific and uptake inhibi...
متن کاملConversion of human choriogonadotropin into a follitropin by protein engineering.
Human reproduction is dependent upon the actions of follicle-stimulating hormone (hFSH), luteinizing hormone (hLH), and chorionic gonadotropin (hCG). While the alpha subunits of these heterodimeric proteins can be interchanged without effect on receptor-binding specificity, their beta subunits differ and direct hormone binding to either LH/CG or FSH receptors. Previous studies employing chemica...
