I-Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH)

I-Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) iyi-gonadotropin ekhiqizwa ama-basophil ku-anterior pituitary futhi iyi-glycoprotein enesisindo se-molecular esingaba ngu-30,000 daltons.I-molecule yayo inamaketango amabili ahlukene e-peptide (α kanye no-β) angaboshiwe ngokuhlanganyela.Ukukhiqizwa kwe-FSH kulawulwa i-Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone (GnRH) ekhiqizwa i-hypothalamus, futhi ilawulwa amahomoni ocansi akhiqizwe yizindlala eziqondiwe ngokusebenzisa indlela yokuphendula engemihle.

Izinga le-FSH liyakhuphuka ngesikhathi sokunqamuka kokuya esikhathini, ngemva kwe-oophorectomy, kanye nokwehluleka kwe-ovarian ngaphambi kwesikhathi.Ubudlelwane obungavamile phakathi kwe-Luteinizing Hormone (LH) ne-FSH naphakathi kwe-FSH ne-estrogen buhlotshaniswa ne-anorexia nervosa nesifo se-polycystic ovary.
