Figure 7. Proposed model of LH negative feedback involving ZFP36L2 RNA-binding protein.

Figure 7

The binding of LH to LHR activates the cAMP/PKA pathway, which through an unidentified mechanism favors ZFP36L2 binding to LHR mRNA. ZFP36L2 binds specifically to one ARE, located at the 3′UTR of LHR mRNA, promoting degradation of this transcript; thus generating a negative feedback response to LH response.
