Other Information

**Key characteristics:** * Inhibin is a glycoprotein with a molecular weight of approximately 130 kDa. * It is expressed in a variety of cell types, including endocardial cells, bronchus fibroblasts of the lung, anterior lens cells, alveolar macrophages, lens epithelial cells, colon goblet cells, mural cells, trophoblast giant cells, and intestinal crypt stem cells. * Inhibin binds to the activin receptor and inhibits its activity by blocking the binding of the receptor to its ligand, activin. * Activin is a protein that is involved in the regulation of female reproductive function. * Inhibin is a key negative regulator of the female reproductive system, and its expression is often associated with fertility. **Pathways and functions:** * Inhibin works by binding to the activin receptor and inhibiting its activity. This prevents the activation of the receptor's downstream signaling pathways, which can lead to the inhibition of female reproductive functions. * Inhibin also inhibits the activity of other signaling pathways, including those involving BMP, TGF-beta, and estrogen receptors. * As a result of its inhibitory effects, inhibin helps to control the development and maintenance of female reproductive structures, such as the uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries. **Clinical significance:** * Mutations in the INHBA gene have been linked to infertility in humans. * Inhibin is a potential therapeutic target for infertility, as it can be used to treat conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). * Inhibin is currently being investigated as a potential treatment for endometriosis, a condition characterized by pain and infertility.
