Target Background

Function
(From Uniprot)
Seems to play a role in testicular function. May be a trophic hormone with a role in testicular descent in fetal life. Is a ligand for LGR8 receptor.
Gene References into Functions
  1. Variants of the INSL3 gene are prevalent in patients with testicular torsion instead of healthy subjects. PMID: 29785651
  2. The strong positive correlation between INSL3, and high ovarian androgens levels in all polycystic ovary syndrome women, which appeared clearly in undescended polycystic ovaries could support the proposed syndrome hypothesis between those abnormal findings. PMID: 29254383
  3. KLF6-mediated activation of the human INSL3 promoter required an intact KLF element as well as Leydig/Sertoli-enriched factors. KLF6 transcriptionally cooperates with NUR77 and SF1. our results identify KLF6 as a regulator of human INSL3 transcription. PMID: 26874000
  4. The INSL3 G178A polymorphism was not significantly associated with spermatozoa or no spermatozoa in the testes of males with a history of bilateral cryptorchidism. I The evidence suggests that mutations of INSL3 may not directly contribute to the damage of spermatogenesis in patients with bilateral cryptorchidism history. PMID: 26840636

  18. Cystin A11-B10 serves as an insulator between the two ports, whereas the amide functionality disturbs the signal transmission complex likely due to changes in polarity. PMID: 22574850
  19. Data suggest that insulin-like factor 3 is related to functional ovarian hyperandrogenism in women with polycystic ovary syndrome. PMID: 21586896
  20. study demonstrates that the INSL3/RXFP2 system is involved in bone metabolism by acting on the MAPK cascade and stimulating transcription of important genes of osteoblast maturation/differentiation and osteoclastogenesis PMID: 22216350
  21. Data show that synthetic parallel dimer of the B-chain of INSL3 is a potent inhibitor of the native peptide's binding to its receptor, RXFP2. PMID: 20560146
  22. The current knowledge of INSL3, its involvement in testicular descent and germ cell survival, verifies that this Leydig cell hormone is an important player in testicular physiology[review] PMID: 20550598
