Mullerian inhibiting substance: a gonadal hormone with multiple functions.
Mullerian inhibiting substance (MIS) is the gonadal hormone that causes regression of the Mullerian ducts, the anlagen of the female internal reproductive structures, during male embryogenesis. MIS is a member of the large transforming growth factor-beta (TGF beta) multigene family of glycoproteins that are involved in the regulation of growth and differentiation. The proteins in this gene fami...
متن کاملprediction of assisted reproductive technique outcome in elevated early follicular phase follicle stimulating hormone with mullerian inhibiting substance level
background: detection of best predictor of ovarian reserve in patients with temporarily or consistently elevated early follicular phase serum levels of fsh is one of the most important goals in assisted reproductive technique (art). objective: to evaluate whether high level of anti-mullerian hormone level is related to success of art in patients with temporarily or consistently elevated early f...
متن کاملRegulation of gonadotropin gene expression by Mullerian inhibiting substance.
In addition to its role in causing Müllerian duct regression, Müllerian inhibiting substance (MIS) is implicated in the regulation of steroidogenesis, breast and prostate growth, and ovarian follicle recruitment, all of which are processes controlled or influenced by the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis. Whereas the direct effect of MIS on gonadal, prostate, and breast cells is under investi...

متن کاملMullerian inhibiting substance preferentially inhibits stem/progenitors in human ovarian cancer cell lines compared with chemotherapeutics.
Cancer stem cells are proposed to be tumor-initiating cells capable of tumorigenesis, recurrence, metastasis, and drug resistance, and, like somatic stem cells, are thought to be capable of unlimited self-renewal and, when stimulated, proliferation and differentiation. Here we select cells by expression of a panel of markers to enrich for a population with stem cell-like characteristics. A pane...
