Anti-Inhibin,alpha, clone YN02106m

Inhibin is a glycoprotein hormone, which is composed of alpha and beta It is composed of two subunits, which are produced by ovarian granulosa cells and can inhibit the production and nuclear secretion of pituitary gonadotropin, alpha- Inhibin determines its specificity. The is used to study the mechanism tumors of reproductive axis. Protein function: Inhibins and activins inhibit and activate, respectively, the secretion of follitropin by the pituitary gland. Inhibins/activins are involved in regulating a number of diverse functions such as hypothalamic and pituitary hormone secretion, gonadal hormone secretion, germ cell development and maturation, erythroid differentiation, insulin secretion, nerve cell survival, embryonic axial development or bone growth, depending on their subunit composition. Inhibins appear to oppose the functions of activins. [The UniProt Consortium]
