Abstract

THE pituitary gonadotropins, LH and FSH, play a central role in the mammalian reproductive process. Synthesized in the gonadotropes of the pituitary, the gonadotropins bind to receptors in the gonads leading to effects on steroidogenesis and gametogenesis (Fig. 1). Because these hormones are responsible for sexual maturation and normal reproductive function, the regulation of their synthesis and secretion is essential for the preservation of a species. In recent years, a great deal has been learned about the regulation of synthesis of the gonadotropins using the tools of molecular biology. Before we can fully appreciate these new insights, however, it is important to understand the complex structure of the gonadotropins and to summarize what is known about the regulation of their secretion. In this review, we will discuss the structure of the gonadotropin subunits, the structure of the genes that encode them, and the regulation of their secretion and synthesis.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
