5 1.3 Fertility hormones Assays on the PATHFAST analyzer Portfolio (origin) FSH (Pituitary gland) LH (Pituitary gland) Estradiol (Ovaries and corpus luteum) Progesterone (Follicle and corpus luteum) Testosterone (Testes) Prolactin (Pituitary gland) hcg preg (Developing embryo and placenta) Diagnostics PATHFAST Chemiluminescence-immuno-analyzer 5
6 2.1 Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) Follicular phase of monthly cycle (28 days) Diagnostics PATHFAST Chemiluminescence-immuno-analyzer 6
7 2.1.1 Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) - release Brain Pituitary gland FSH is produced and secreted by the gonadotropes in the pituitary gland and interacts with the FSH receptor Diagnostics PATHFAST Chemiluminescence-immuno-analyzer 7
8 2.1.2 Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) - effect Follicles Ovary Effect in females: FSH regulates the development, growth and recruitment of immature follicles in the ovary Seminiferous tubules Testis Corpus luteum Epididymis Effect in males: FSH together with Testosterone cause the Sertoli cells in the Seminiferous tubules to stimulate sperm production The sperm become mature in the Epididymis In both - females and males - FSH stimulates the maturation of germ cells Diagnostics PATHFAST Chemiluminescence-immuno-analyzer 8

11 2.2 Luteinizing hormone (LH) Luteal phase of monthly cycle - LH maximum at time of ovulation Diagnostics PATHFAST Chemiluminescence-immuno-analyzer 11
12 2.2.1 Luteinizing hormone (LH) - release Hypothalamus Pituitary gland Ovaries Testes Biochemical background: The release of LH from the gonadotropic cells of the pituitary gland is controlled by pulses of the Gonadotropin-releasing Hormone (GnRH) from the hypothalamus. LH is transported via the blood stream to the ovaries (to stimulate the growth and maturation of follicles) and to the testes (to stimulate the production of testosterone) Diagnostics PATHFAST Chemiluminescence-immuno-analyzer 12
13 2.2.2 Luteinizing hormone (LH) - effect egg Effect in females An acute rise of LH (the LH surge) triggers ovulation at about day 14 in the monthly cycle and induces formation of the corpus luteum Detection of the LH rise (with immunological tests) is useful for persons with the intension of conceiving Effect in males LH stimulates the Leyding cells of the testes to release the male sex hormone Testosterone Section through seminiferous tubule of the testes Leyding or Interstitial cells In both females and males LH is essential for reproduction Diagnostics PATHFAST Chemiluminescence-immuno-analyzer 13

18 2.3.2 Estradiol (E2) - effects egg whole in follicle filled with liquid mature follicle stimulates E2 production Sustentacular or Sertoli cells Section through the seminiferous tubule of the testis Effect in females: Estradiol (E2) reflects primarily the activity of the ovaries E2 acts as a growth hormone for tissue of the reproductive organs E2 concentration during fertility therapy is an important basis for the monitoring of IVF treatment E2 is the most important indicator to define timeframe of IVF Effect in males: The effect of estradiol upon male reproduction is complex Estradiol is produced in the Sertoli (Sustentacular) cells of the testes There is evidence that estradiol prevents apoptosis (cell death) of male germ cells In both females and males FSH stimulates the maturation of germ cells Diagnostics PATHFAST Chemiluminescence-immuno-analyzer 18
