There is now a rapidly increasing literature examining additional possibilities for AMH, ...
متن کاملAnti - Müllerian hormone in sheep follicles ( 1 )
The purpose of this work was to study anti-MOllerian hormone (AMH) secretion during ovarian development in sheep before and after birth. We used avidinbiotin immunocytochemistry and a monoclonal antibody specific for ruminant AMH. Only granulosa cells have an immunoreactivity ; this immunoreactivity was influenced by animal age and by the degree of follicular development. In the fetus, no immun...
متن کاملAnti-Müllerian hormone: a critical factor for female fertility and reproductive health.
Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) is a glycoprotein produced by the granulosa cells of preantral and small antral follicles. AMH concentrations reflect ovarian physiology with high precision, thus serving as a more sensitive marker of the ovarian re-serve than chronological age. This hormone plays a role in the pathogenesis of menstrual disorders and fertility in both obesity and polycystic ovary sy...
متن کاملRegulation of ovarian function: the role of anti-Müllerian hormone.
Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH), also known as Müllerian inhibiting substance, is a member of the transforming growth factor beta superfamily of growth and differentiation factors. In contrast to other members of the family, which exert a broad range of functions in multiple tissues, the principal function of AMH is to induce regression of the Müllerian ducts during male sex differentiation. Howev...
