Gonadotropin receptors.

Abstract

Les récepteurs des gonadotrophines appartiennent à un sous-groupe des récepteurs couplés aux protéines G, caractérisé par un long domaine extracellulaire responsable de la liaison de l'hormone. Des variants d'épissage du récepteur de la LH sont produits en grande quantité. Ils sont solubles et lient l'hormone. Des précurseurs riches en résidus mannose des récepteurs de la LH et de la FSH sont accumulés à l'intérieur des cellules. Les récepteurs de la FSH sont localisés dans le domaine basolatéral des membranes cellulaires par des mécanismes d'adressage spécifiques. Les récepteurs des gonadotrophines sont également présents dans les cellules endothéliales des vaisseaux des organes cibles et sont impliqués dans la transcytose de l'hormone. Différentes anomalies génétiques humaines des récepteurs des gonadotrophines (et de la GnRH) ont été décrites.

Gonadotropin receptors belong to a subgroup of G-protein coupled receptors characterized by a large extracellular domain responsible for the binding of the hormone. Soluble, hormone-binding, alternative splicing variants of the LH receptor, are present in high concentration. A mannose rich precursor form of LH and FSH receptor is accumulated inside target cells. FSH receptors are addressed to the basolateral domain of cells through specific signaling mechanisms. Gonadotropin receptors are also present in endothelial cells of target organ vessels and are involved in hormone transcytosis. Various genetic abnormalities of these receptors (and of the GnRH receptor) are discussed.
