Preferred Label : receptors, LH;
MeSH definition : Those protein complexes or molecular sites on the surfaces and cytoplasm of gonadal
cells that bind luteinizing or chorionic gonadotropic hormones and thereby cause the
gonadal cells to synthesize and secrete sex steroids. The hormone-receptor complex
is internalized from the plasma membrane and initiates steroid synthesis.;
