Esfandyari S, Winston N, Fierro M, Scoccia H, Stocco C
Mol Hum Reprod . 2021 Apr; 27(6). PMID: 33905521
Secreted frizzled-related protein-4 (SFRP4) belongs to a family of soluble ovarian-expressed proteins that participate in female reproduction, particularly in rodents. In humans, SFRP4 is highly expressed in cumulus cells (CCs)....

Convissar S, Winston N, Fierro M, Scoccia H, Zamah A, Stocco C
J Steroid Biochem Mol Biol . 2019 Apr; 190:183-192. PMID: 30954507
Luteinizing hormone and human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) bind to the luteinizing hormone/chorionic gonadotropin receptor (LHCGR). LHCGR is required to maintain corpus luteum function but the mechanisms involved in the regulation...

Hobeika E, Armouti M, Kala H, Fierro M, Winston N, Scoccia B, et al.
J Clin Endocrinol Metab . 2018 Dec; 104(5):1667-1676. PMID: 30541132
Context: The role of growth differentiation factor 9 (GDF9) and bone morphogenetic protein 15 (BMP15) on aromatase regulation is poorly understood in humans. Objective: Determine GDF9 and BMP15 effects on...

Convissar S, Armouti M, Fierro M, Winston N, Scoccia H, Zamah A, et al.
Reproduction . 2017 Sep; 154(6):745-753. PMID: 28874516
The regulation of AMH production by follicular cells is poorly understood. The purpose of this study was to determine the role of the oocyte-secreted factors, growth differentiation factor 9 (GDF9)...

Stocco C, Baumgarten S, Armouti M, Fierro M, Winston N, Scoccia B, et al.
Hum Reprod . 2017 Feb; 32(4):905-914. PMID: 28158425
Study Question: Is the genome-wide response of human cumulus cells to FSH and insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) comparable to the response observed in undifferentiated granulosa cells (GCs)? Summary Answer: FSH...

Baumgarten S, Convissar S, Zamah A, Fierro M, Winston N, Scoccia B, et al.
J Clin Endocrinol Metab . 2015 Jun; 100(8):E1046-55. PMID: 26066673
Context: IGF-2 is highly expressed in the granulosa cells of human dominant ovarian follicles; however, little is known about the regulation of the IGF-2 gene or the interaction of IGF-2...

Baumgarten S, Convissar S, Fierro M, Winston N, Scoccia B, Stocco C
J Clin Endocrinol Metab . 2014 May; 99(8):2995-3004. PMID: 24848710
Context: FSH is routinely administered to in vitro fertilization patients to induce follicle maturation. During this process, granulosa cells differentiate and acquire specific functional characteristics that are required to coordinate...

Thyroid . 2012 May; 22(6):631-6. PMID: 22540326
Background: Untreated hypothyroidism can lead to ovulatory dysfunction resulting in oligo-amenorrhea. Treatment with levothyroxine can reverse such dysfunction and thus should improve fertility. The purpose of this retrospective study was...
