Research Abstract |
It has been reported that Mvk binds to LHR mRNA and stimulates the digestion of this mRNA as post-translational regulation. The production of Mvk was inhibited by E2 and stimulated by IL-6 and TNFα in granulosa cell culture.In the uterus, Mvk expression decreased after hCG treatment of immature rats. These results suggest that functional LHR are present in the uterus and are downregulated by hCG induced hCG.
