FSH LH : FSH ratio
Patient A was a 30-year-old white woman with a longstanding history of primary amenorrhea and infertility. By age 18 the patient had neither menstruated nor demonstrated evidence of normal breast development. At that time she was given oral contraceptives for four cycles and responded with normal vaginal bleeding. Laboratory evaluation at age 18 demonstrated a serum FSH (follicle-stimulating ho...
متن کاملElevated FSH concentrations in imminent ovarian failure are associated with higher FSH and LH pulse amplitude and response to GnRH.
Imminent ovarian failure (IOF) in women is characterized by regular menstrual cycles and elevated early follicular phase FSH. This study explored underlying neuroendocrine causes of elevated FSH concentrations on day 3 of the menstrual cycle. The characteristics of episodic secretion of FSH and LH, the pituitary response to gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH), plasma oestradiol, and dimeric ...
متن کاملBoth recombinant African catfish LH and FSH are able to activate the African catfish FSH receptor.
LH and FSH are heterodimeric glycoprotein hormones, composed of a common alpha-subunit non-covalently associated with a hormone-specific beta-subunit. Repeated efforts to isolate catfish FSH (cfFSH) have not been successful and only catfish LH (cfLH) has been purified from catfish pituitaries. Recently, however, we succeeded in cloning the cDNA encoding the putative cfFSHbeta; the cDNAs for the...
متن کاملFSHB promoter polymorphism within evolutionary conserved element is associated with serum FSH level in men
BACKGROUND No polymorphisms affecting serum FSH levels have been described in the human FSHB gene. We have identified a potential regulatory single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP, rs10835638; G/T) 211 bp upstream from the FSHB mRNA transcription start-site, located within a highly conserved region among placental mammals. We aimed to determine the correlation of carrier status of rs10835638 alter...
متن کاملPulsatile LH release is diminished, whereas FSH secretion is normal, in hypocretin-deficient narcoleptic men.
Hypocretin (orexin) peptides are involved in the regulation of energy balance and pituitary hormone release. Narcolepsy is a sleep disorder characterized by disruption of hypocretin neurotransmission. Pituitary LH secretion is diminished in hypocretin-deficient animal models, and intracerebroventricular administration of hypocretin-1 activates the hypothalamo-pituitary-gonadal axis in rats. We ...
