In vitro biosynthesis of human chorionic follicle stimulating hormone.

O-20: The Combination of Basic Fibroblast Growth Factor and Follicular Stimulating Hormone Promotes Human Follicle Development In Vitro Culture

Background Fertility preservation is an important part of scientific study in the field of reproductive medicine. Ovarian cryopreservation and in vitro follicles culture provide option for fertility conservation in older women or cancer patients. Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) or FGF-2, is member of fibroblast growth factors family which play critical roles in cell migration proliferatio...

Overnight radioimmunoassay of human follicle-stimulating hormone.

A radioimmunoassay procedure for follicle-stimulating hormone in serum has been developed in which the assay mixture is incubated at 37#{176}C for a total of 22 h, rather than at 4#{176}C for 4-7 days. The withinassay coefficients of variation for the 37#{176}C and 4#{176}C methods, respectively, are 7.7% and 5.0%, while the between-assay variations are 13.8% and 9.9%. Comparison of values for ...

Follicle stimulating hormone increases spermatogonial stem cell colonization during in vitro co-culture

The complex process of spermatogenesis is regulated by various factors. Studies on spermatogonial stem cells (SCCs) have provided very important tool to improve herd genetic and different field. 0.2 to 0.3 percent of total cells of seminiferous tubules is consist of spermatogonial stem cells. To investigate and biomanipulation of these cells, proliferation and viability rate of cells should be ...

The Correlations of Anti-Mullerian Hormone, Follicle-Stimulating Hormone and Antral Follicle Count in Different Age Groups of Infertile Women

Follicle-stimulating hormone and human spermatogenesis.

The role of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) in the control of spermatogenesis is not well established in any species, including man. We studied the effect of an experimentally-induced, selective FSH deficiency on sperm production in normal men. After a 3-mo control period, five normal men received testosterone enanthate (T) 200 mg i. m. weekly to suppress luteinizing hormone (LH) and FSH, un...
