Other Information

**Key characteristics:** - INHBB is a glycoprotein with a molecular weight of approximately 150 kDa. - It is produced in response to starvation and is also induced by cytokines such as follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH). - INHBB binds to the activin receptor, which is expressed on the surface of Sertoli cells and granulosa cells. - Upon binding to activin, INHBB inhibits the activation of the receptor, leading to the inhibition of follicle development and growth. **Pathways and functions:** - INHBB negatively regulates the expression of genes involved in follicle development, such as those encoding for growth factors, receptors, and cytokines. - It also inhibits the production of growth factors and cytokines, including FSH and LH. - By blocking the action of activin, INHBB helps to maintain the developmental status of ovarian follicles and prevents the growth of new follicles. - In addition, INHBB plays a role in the regulation of uterine growth and development. **Clinical significance:** - Mutations in the INHBB gene have been linked to polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), a genetic disorder characterized by the formation of numerous and small follicles in the ovaries. - INHBB inhibitors are being investigated as potential treatments for PCOS, as they could be used to block the effects of activin and promote the development of healthy follicles. **Other important points:** - INHBB is a key regulator of female fertility. - It is also involved in the regulation of male fertility by inhibiting the growth of male reproductive cells. - The development of INHBB inhibitors is a promising area of research for the treatment of female infertility.
