Abstract
The present invention relates to a process for the production of human follicle-stimulating hormone (hFSH). More precisely, the invention relates to a process for the mass production of hFSH, comprising in vivo multiplication of human cells capable of producing hFSH, and exposure of the multiplied human cells to a follicle-stimulating hormone inducer. The hFSH production according to the invention is much higher than that attained by conventional processes using in vitro tissue culture; thus, hFSH can be used in a sufficient amount in the prevention and treatment of human diseases.
