Abstract:To understand the complex biochemistry and physiology of activin and inhibin requires the development and validation of a number of specific immunoassays. The importance of this endeavour is signified by the tremendous effort spent by a number of laboratories to develop such assays over the past decade. Based on the deduced amino acid sequence obtained when the inhibin-\g=a\and -\g=b\A/\g=b\Bgenes were cloned (1), RIAs using synthetic peptides were developed that were quite useful in animal studies (2).
