TLDR
Carriers of the SS variant have slightly higher basal FSH levels, tending to require higher doses of exogenous FSH for stimulation, compared with those carrying the Asn/Asn genotype.

Mutations and polymorphisms in FSH receptor: functional implications in human reproduction

TL;DR: The present review discusses the current knowledge of various genetic alterations in FSHR and their impact on receptor function in the female reproductive system and develops molecular markers to predict the optimum dose of FSH required for controlled ovarian hyperstimulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic predictors of controlled ovarian hyperstimulation: where do we stand today?

TL;DR: Although data are accumulating with evidence suggesting that the ovarian response to COH is mediated by various polymorphisms, the optimal biomarkers and the efficacy of the tests still remain to be evaluated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanisms in endocrinology: Genetics of FSH action: a 2014-and-beyond view.

TL;DR: The combination of FSHR and FSHB genotypes has a much stronger impact than either one alone in both sexes and may be related to changes in human reproductive strategies and be a marker of some health-related advantage at the cost of reduced fertility.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanisms in endocrinology: regulation of glucose metabolism by the ghrelin system: multiple players and multiple actions.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the current literature on the gluco-regulatory action of the ghrelin system (dAG, AG, GHSR, and GOAT) with specific emphasis aimed toward distinguishing AG vs dAG action.

The follicle-stimulating hormone receptor: biochemistry, molecular biology, physiology, and pathophysiology.

TL;DR: This work presents a detailed description of the structure-function relationships and models of FSH-FSH Receptor interaction, and some of the mechanisms behind the interaction between the FSH and FSH receptor have been described.

Bone Morphogenetic Protein-15 IDENTIFICATION OF TARGET CELLS AND BIOLOGICAL FUNCTIONS

TL;DR: GCs are identified as the first target cells for bone morphogenetic protein-15, and BMP-15 is the first growth factor that can coordinate GC proliferation and differentiation in a way that reflects normal physiology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ovarian response to follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) stimulation depends on the FSH receptor genotype

TL;DR: Clinical findings demonstrate that the ovarian response to FSH stimulation depends on the FSHR genotype, and the number of ampoules needed could be predicted from a linear combination of both the type of polymorphism and basal FSH levels.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic and functional analyses of polymorphisms in the human FSH receptor gene

TL;DR: Although F SH receptor polymorphisms have no discernible effect on FSH receptor function in vitro, there are associations between the genotype and some aspects of patient status as suggested by the results of restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis.
