WHAT DOES GONADOTROPHIC MEAN IN ENGLISH?

gonadotrophic

Gonadotropic cell

Gonadotropes are endocrine cells in the anterior pituitary that produce the gonadotropins, such as the follicle-stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone. Release of FSH and LH by gonadotrophs is regulated by gonadotropin-releasing hormone from the hypothalamus. Gonadotropes appear basophilic in histological preparations. Gonadotropes have insulin receptors, which can be overstimulated by too high insulin levels. This may lead to infertility as hormone release levels are disrupted.

Definition of gonadotrophic in the English dictionary

The definition of gonadotrophic in the dictionary is of, relating to, or involving gonadotrophins.
