Activator Protein-1 and Smad Proteins Synergistically Regulate Human Follicle-Stimulating Hormone β-Promoter Activity
24 Jul 2008
Abstract excerpt
GnRH1 stimulates the synthesis and secretion of FSH and LH from the anterior pituitary gland. The molecular mechanisms through which GnRH1 produces these effects in humans have not been determined. Here, we examined transcriptional regulation of the human FSHbeta (FSHB) subunit using reporter assays in immortalized murine gonadotrope cells. GnRH1 dose and time dependently stimulated FSHB promoter activity, with...
