General description
Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) belongs to the family of glycoprotein hormones. It is synthesized in the gonadotrophs present in the pituitary gland. FSH contains non-covalently associated α- and β-subunits and is a disulfide-rich heterodimer.

Biochem/physiol Actions
Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) participates in the regulation of reproduction in mammals. It exerts its effects through a G-protein-coupled receptor known as follicle-stimulating hormone receptor (FSHR) that is located on the granulosa cells of the ovaries and Sertoli cells of the testes. FSH plays a role in the maturation of ovarian follicles in females and supports spermatogenesis by activating Sertoli cell proliferation in males. The interaction of FSH with its receptor FSH-R leads to the activation of G-protein coupled receptors/cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)/protein kinase A pathways to transmit intracellular signals.

Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) is a member of the glycoprotein hormone family that includes luteinzing hormone (LH), thyroid stimulating hormone, and chorionic gonadotropin. These heterodimeric hormones share a common alpha subunit and differ in their hormone-specific beta subunit. The biological

Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) is central to reproduction in mammals. It acts through a G-protein-coupled receptor on the surface of target cells to stimulate testicular and ovarian functions. We present here the 2.9-A-resolution structure of a partially deglycosylated complex of human

FSH is synthesized in the pituitary by gonadotrope cells. By binding to and interacting with its cognate receptor [FSH receptor (FSHR)] in the gonads, this gonadotropin plays a key role in the control of gonadal function and reproduction. Upon activation
