摘要：

Through unique receptors, growth hormone (GH) stimulates ovarian follicles and Leydig cells, working alone or synergistically with luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). The source of GH might include a unique cell type that expresses mRNA encoding gonadotropin and GH and the antigens themselves, together with gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) and GH-releasing hormone (GHRH) receptors. This multifunctional cell might provide a cocktail of hormones needed to effect optimal gonadotropic activity.
