Results from this study3

No result from this study comes from a test of the peptide.

Natural levels measured3

These results measure the body's own peptide. Nobody was given the peptide. They are not evidence about taking it. They are left out of key results, evidence counts and charts.

  1. 01AnimalEndogenous levelAnimal study (in vivo)Mechanism

    In the bonnet monkey corpus luteum, inhibition of LH secretion up-regulated expression of the body's own humanin gene, along with other genes.

    In plain wordsIn monkeys, blocking LH raised the activity of the body's own humanin gene in the corpus luteum.

    Summary
    The results show that inhibition of LH secretion not only leads to down-regulation in the expression of genes, e.g. low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor and Aldose reductase, but expression of some of the genes was up-regulated, e.g. Humanin, RNA helicase, Lyric protein, Acidic ribosomal phosphoprotein and KIAA1750

    Summary · context
    In an attempt to characterize gonadotrophin (LH)-regulated gene expression in the bonnet monkey corpus luteum (CL), changes in gene expression after GnRH antagonist treatment to inhibit LH secretion, different stages of CL and during hCG-simulated early pregnancy were examined using differential dis…

  2. 02AnimalEndogenous levelAnimal study (in vivo)Mechanism

    In the bonnet monkey corpus luteum, mRNA levels of the genes up-regulated after LH inhibition, which include humanin, were higher in the late luteal phase than in the early and mid-luteal phase.

    In plain wordsIn monkeys, the activity of a group of genes that includes the body's own humanin was higher late in the luteal phase.

    Summary
    mRNA levels of the genes identified as up-regulated after LH inhibition were higher during late compared to the early and mid-luteal phase CL, but treatment with hCG down-regulated their expressions.
