FSHRaktivering
FSHRaktivering refers to the activation of the follicle-stimulating hormone receptor (FSHR), a process relevant in both reproductive biology and medical research. The follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), produced by the anterior pituitary gland, binds to FSHR on the surface of Sertoli cells in the testes and granulosa cells in the ovaries. This binding triggers intracellular signaling pathways that regulate gametogenesis (sperm and egg production) and steroidogenesis (hormone production).
Activation of FSHR is essential for ovarian follicle development, where it promotes the growth of ovarian follicles
Research into FSHR activation has explored potential therapeutic applications, particularly in fertility treatments. Selective FSHR agonists
Understanding FSHR activation also has implications for understanding broader endocrine disorders. Variations in FSHR sensitivity or
