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 کاملA bolus of recombinant human follicle stimulating hormone at midcycle induces periovulatory events following multiple follicular development in macaques.
The efficacy of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) as an alternative to luteinizing hormone (LH)/human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG) for the initiation of periovulatory events in primate follicles is unknown. A single bolus of 2500 IU recombinant (r)-hFSH was compared to 1000 IU r-HCG for its ability to promote oocyte nuclear maturation and fertilization, granulosa cell luteinization and corpus...
متن کاملAdministration of follitropin alfa and lutropin alfa combined in a single injection: a feasibility assessment
BACKGROUND Gonadotrophins are routinely administered in assisted reproductive technology (ART) treatment protocols. Recombinant human follicle-stimulating hormone (r-hFSH; follitropin alfa) and recombinant human luteinizing hormone (r-hLH; lutropin alfa) can be administered individually or in a fixed combination. The ability to vary the FSH to LH dose ratio in a single injection without comprom...
متن کاملHuman follitropin: Structure-activity relationships
Studies of human follitropin (hFSH) structure-activity relationships from the author' s laboratory are reviewed. These include mutagenesis studies that complemented the determination of the three dimensIonal structure of hFSH. Despite a large extracellular domain of the FSH receptor and the complexity and size of both the receptor and the hFSH molecule, only a handful of hFSH amino acids are re...
