Evaluating luteinizing hormone receptor signaling using the cyclic AMP reporter ICUE3
The luteinizing hormone (LH) receptor is a member of the G protein-coupled receptor family and the subfamily of glycoprotein hormone receptors. The LH receptor plays a vital role in normal development and in the function of the gonads. The LH receptor is expressed in interstitial cells, thecal …

Investigating luteinizing hormone receptor signal transduction using the cyclic AMP reporter ICUE1
… involved in initiation of signaling by LH receptors have been under active investigation because they play important roles in human fertility and development of gonadal tumors. Assay of cAMP levels in response to hormone treatment is usually used to demonstrate LH receptor activation and …

Characterization of Residual Ovarian Tissue in Mice following 4-vinylcyclohexene Diepoxide-induced Ovarian Failure
… were enriched in mRNAs for androgenic enzymes, receptors involved in the internalization of cholesterol, and luteinizing hormone receptor. Increased circulating levels of FSH and LH and detectable and rostenedione were measured throughout the study. Protein for 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase, …

Characterization and Role of Secretogranin-II/Secretoneurin in Zebrafish Reproduction
… and neuropeptides interact to control luteinizing hormone and follicle stimulating hormone release from gonadotrophs. The luteinizing hormone surge is essential for fertility as it triggers ovulation in females and sperm release in males. While it is well-established that …

Rotational motion and organization studies of cell membrane proteins
… and the membrane cytoskeleton. Plasma membrane receptors are integral membrane proteins with diverse structures and functions which bind specific ligands to trigger cellular responses. Due to compartmentalization of the plasma membrane and the formation of membrane microdomains, receptors are …

Determining the role of nerve growth factor-beta in seminal plasma on bovine reproduction
… were excised and cultured in media containing luteinizing hormone, follicle stimulating hormone, +/- NGF. Culture media was replaced and frozen at 3, 6, 12, 24, 48, and 72 hours for steroid hormone measurement. Follicle wall tissue pieces were flash-frozen at completion of culture (72 hours) to …
