VGO-0205
QUESTION
The hormone synthesized by Sertoli cell of the testis in the male and by granulosa cells of pre-antral, small antral follicles and cumulus oophorus in females?
OPTIONS
(A) FSH
(B) AMH
(C) LH
(D) None of the above
ANSWER
(B) AMH
EXPLANATION
Anti-Mullerian hormone is produced by Sertoli cells in males and by granulosa cells of preantral and small antral follicles in females. In the male fetus it causes Mullerian duct regression, while ovarian AMH reflects aspects of the growing follicle population. FSH and LH are pituitary gonadotropins, so their principal source is not the gonadal cell populations specified in the question.
