Abstract:Abnormalities in gonadotropin hormone release and function can arise from changes in a variety of genes expressed throughout the hypothalamic–pituitary (gonadotrope)–gonadal (HPG) axis. Alterations in these genes can disrupt proteins that are involved in many different biological processes such as neuronal migration, gonadotropin‐releasing hormone (GnRH) release and action, and pituitary development, as well as affecting synthesis and function of the gonadotropin hormones (follicle‐stimulating hormone and lute… Show more
