Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) : new modulators of the follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) synthesis and release
To extend our knowledge on FSH synthesis regulation, we investigated the potential role of BMPs in the ewe pituitary. The two types of BMP receptors (BMPR-IA and BMPR-II) co-localised with gonadotrope cells and their ligands (BMP-2, BMP-4, BMP-7 and GDF-9) mRNAs were detected in the pituitary sugges...
