Figure 5

The response of the steroidogenesis model to increasing FAD exposure. GnRH introduces a pulse affect on LH. The oscillatory behavior at the LH receptor is filtered by the G-protein and PKA cycles and is significantly minimized by the time the signal reaches SF1. The cholesterol pool available inside the mitochondria is suppressed by FAD exposure. This leads to suppression of E2 and over production of T in the blood stream.
