Description

The follicle-stimulating hormone beta (FSHB) gene encodes the follitropin subunit beta protein. The beta subunit protein, along with an identical alpha subunit, makes up the follicle-stimulating hormone, which is involved in egg and sperm production. A promoter polymorphism (c.-211G>T; rs10835638) in the FSHB gene was found to significantly reduce FSH serum levels and may be associated with reduced fertility in men (Grigorova et al. J Clin Endocrinol Metab 95:100-108, 2009, PMID: 19897680) Source: Regenstrief LOINC, PMID: 19897680
