The luteinizing hormone/chorionic gonadotropin receptor, LHCGR, is essential for fertility in men and women. LHCGR binds luteinizing hormone (LH) as well as the highly homologous chorionic gonadotropin (CG). Signaling from LHCGR is required for steroidogenesis and gametogenesis in males and females...
