The hypothalamic decapeptide, GnRH, is the gatekeeper of mammalian reproductive
development and function. Activation of specific, high-affinity cell surface receptors (GnRH …

Mammalian reproduction is controlled by the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis. GnRH
from the hypothalamus regulates synthesis and secretion of gonadotropins, LH and FSH …

The activins were discovered and named based on their abilities to stimulate FSH secretion
and FSHβ (Fshb) subunit expression by pituitary gonadotrope cells. According to …

Abstract Elongation factor 4 (EF4) is a key quality-control factor in translation. Despite its
high conservation throughout evolution, EF4 deletion in various organisms has not yielded a …

Mammalian reproduction depends on the gonadotropins, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH),
and luteinizing hormone, which are secreted by pituitary gonadotrope cells. The zinc-finger …

Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) from the hypothalamus regulates synthesis and
secretion of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) from the …

The pulsatile release of GnRH regulates the synthesis and secretion of pituitary FSH and
LH. Two transcription factors, cAMP-response element-binding protein (CREB) and …

Erectile dysfunction (ED) incidence is higher in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
Studies have suggested that ED and OSA may activate similar pathways; however, few have …
