Abstract
We report inhibin α- and βA -subunit gene expression in the human corpus luteum and placenta using human α-subunit and bovine βA -subunit nucleic acid probes. In addition, we have demonstrated the presence of immunoreactive and bioactive inhibin in human corpora lutea. Our findings suggest that this tissue is a significant source of inhibin during the luteal phase of the normal human menstrual cycle.This publication has 11 references indexed in Scilit:
