Isolated follicle-stimulating hormone elevation as a prognostic factor for negative microTESE outcome

Tachycardia as a Negative Prognostic Factor for Stroke Outcome

INTRODUCTION The outcome of stroke, especially lethal one is significant, as in the hemorrhagic as well as in ischemic stroke. GOAL was to show the impact on the stroke outcome of tachycardia correlated with lesion localization. MATERIAL AND METHODS Material for our work was patients who were treated due to the stroke at the Neurology Clinic Sarajevo in the period from 31 March 2015 until 0...

Evidence for Follicle-stimulating Hormone Receptor as a Functional Trimer*

Follicle-stimulating hormone receptor (FSHR), a G-protein coupled receptor, is an important drug target in the development of novel therapeutics for reproductive indications. The FSHR extracellular domains were observed in the crystal structure as a trimer, which enabled us to propose a novel model for the receptor activation mechanism. The model predicts that FSHR binds Asnα(52)-deglycosylated...

Follicle-stimulating hormone

Bioactive Follicle-Stimulating Hormone

Specific and sensitive in vitro bioassays suitable for measurement of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) in small quantities of serum and urine have recently been validated. Comparisons of bioassay (B-FSH) potencies with immunoassay (I-FSH) estimates and chromatofocusing patterns have facilitated new discoveries regarding the regulation of FSH biosynthesis, storage, secretion, serum concentrati...

P-198: Utilization of Pichia Pastoris Secretion System for Expression of Equine Follicle Stimulating Hormone

Background: Equine follicle stimulating hormone (eFSH) is a pituitary heterodimeric glycoprotein consists of noncovalently linked of generic alpha subunit and a hormone specific beta subunit. The molecular weights of the subunits are similar and about 16 KD. In general, FSH plays a key role in controlling vertebrate gonadal functions. In female mammals, ovarian maturation and follicular growth ...
