Luteinizing hormone promotes spermatogenesis and ovulation by stimulating the testes and ovaries to synthesize steroids. It exists as a heterodimer of a common alpha chain and a unique beta chain which confers biological specificity to thyrotropin, lutropin, follitropin, and gonatropin.
Specificity was demonstrated by immunohistochemistry.
Application Information:
IHC. A concentration of 1 in 3000 is recommended for IHC. IHC performed in sheep pituitary demonstrates intense staining of cells. No staining is evident when the primary antibody is pre-absorbed with 0.5 mg/ml of LH. Biosensis recommends optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.
