“…Upon hormone binding, the receptor activates the adenylcyclase and the phosphatidylinositol mediated signal transduction pathways and both play a crucial role in reproductive physiology including initiation and maintenance of spermatogenesis and ovarian follicle development (Gudermann et al, 1992;Leung et al, 1996;Chan, 1998). Mutations in these receptors that either activate or inactivate their functions were reported in humans as responsible for several reproductive genetic disorders (David et al, 1984;Shenker et al, 1993;Yano et al, 1995;Kraaij et al, 1995;Kosugi et al, 1995;Laue et al, 1995;Aittomaki et al, 1995;Gromoll et al, 1996;Rosenthal et al, 1996;Simoni et al, 1997;De Roux et al, 1997;Layman et al, 1998;Latronico et al, 1998aLatronico et al, , b, 2000Arnhold et al, 1999;Batista et al, 2000;Kottler et al, 2000).…”
