2. Gonadotropin - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gonadotropin

   The gonadotropins act on the gonads, controlling gamete and sex hormone production. Gonadotropin is sometimes abbreviated Gn. The alternative spelling gonadotrophin which inaccurately implies a nourishing mechanism [6] is also used. There are various preparations of gonadotropins for therapeutic use, mainly as fertility medication.

3. Gonadotropic cell - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gonadotropic_cell

   Gonadotropic cells (also known as gonadotropes, gonadotrophs, delta cells, or delta basophils) are endocrine cells in the anterior pituitary that produce gonadotropins.More specifically, gonadotrophs produce and secrete glycoprotein polypeptide hormones, such as the follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH), which are released due to the positive input of gonadotropin ...

   Another alternative to TRT is human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), which functions like LH by signaling the Leydig cells in the testes to make more testosterone. A synthetic form of LH (Ovidrel) is ...

6. Human chorionic gonadotropin - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_chorionic_gonadotropin

   Human chorionic gonadotropin is a glycoprotein composed of 237 amino acids with a molecular mass of 36.7 kDa, approximately 14.5kDa αhCG and 22.2kDa βhCG. [4]It is heterodimeric, with an α (alpha) subunit identical to that of luteinizing hormone (LH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), and a β (beta) subunit that is unique to hCG.

7. Gonadotropin-releasing hormone - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gonadotropin-releasing_hormone

   Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) is a releasing hormone responsible for the release of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) from the anterior pituitary. GnRH is a tropic peptide hormone synthesized and released from GnRH neurons within the hypothalamus .

9. Follicle-stimulating hormone - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Follicle-stimulating_hormone

   Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) is a gonadotropin, a glycoprotein polypeptide hormone. [1] FSH is synthesized and secreted by the gonadotropic cells of the anterior pituitary gland [2] and regulates the development, growth, pubertal maturation, and reproductive processes of the body.
