Inhibin secretion in women with the polycystic ovary syndrome before and after treatment with progesterone
(2011)
Objectives: It has been suggested that inhibin secretion is altered in women with the polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). However, the contribution of a preceding luteal phase has not been taken into account. The aim of the ...
Attitudes of pregnant women regarding termination of pregnancy for fetal abnormality
(2010)
Objective To study the attitudes of pregnant women towards termination of pregnancy for fetal abnormality Materials and methods A questionnaire was completed by all pregnant women attending routine ultrasound scan. They ...
Effect of ghrelin and metoclopramide on prolactin secretion in normal women
(2011)
Background: Administration of ghrelin to women stimulates the secretion of PRL but the mechanism is not known. Aim: The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of the dopamine receptor blocker, metoclopramide, on ...
The endocrine effects of multiple folliculogenesis
(2011)
Induction of multiple follicular development is a common practice in IVF programmes. Nevertheless, such an approach is not without implications. Apart from the high multiple pregnancy rate, marked changes in the secretion ...
Growth hormone response to submaximal doses of ghrelin remains unchanged during the follicular phase of the cycle
(2013)
Background: Previous data have shown that ghrelin-induced growth hormone (GH) secretion is augmented in women by exogenous but not by endogenous estrogens. The purpose of this study was to examine the response of GH to ...
Evidence for non genomic action of 17 beta estradiol on transepithelial resistance of human fetal membranes
(2011)
Background: The role of hormones in the transport mechanisms of human fetal membranes in pregnancy is unclear. Estrogens are essential hormones in pregnancy and they play an important role in the ion transport via membranes. ...
The progesterone positive feedback effect in women after ovariectomy
(2013)
Various ovarian substances regulate the secretion of gonadotrophins during the menstrual cycle, but there are still several unclarified issues. The aim of this study was to investigate the positive feedback effect of ...
The effect of estrogens on plasma ghrelin concentrations in women
(2010)
Background: Data regarding the possible effects of estrogen on ghrelin secretion in humans are limited and contradictory. Aim: To investigate the effect of estradiol (E2) on ghrelin levels in normal pre- and post-menopausal ...
FSH modulatory effect on human granulosa cells: a gene-protein candidate for gonadotrophin surge-attenuating factor
(2011)
Previous evidence indicates a homology of gonadotrophin surge-attenuating factor (GnSAF) to the carboxyl terminal of human serum albumin (HSA) and the ability of human granulosa cells to produce mRNA transcripts corresponding ...
The role of gonadotropins in the follicular phase
(2010)
Folliculogenesis in humans is a lengthy process that involves several regulators. Pituitary gonadotropins play crucial roles in the late stages, particularly in the last 15 days of follicle maturation. During the intercycle ...
