Recent researches on inhibin and activin were reviewed. This mini review contains brief history of researches on inhibins and activins, criteria, chemistry, the site of production of these two hormones, assay method (bio- and radioimmunoassay), changes of serum inhibin levels in normal physiologic states and in various pathologic states of men and women, actions of inhibins and activins upon FSH and LH secretion from the pituitary, upon other pituitary functions, upon brain functions, erythropoiesis, erythroleukemia, bone and bone marrow, immunology, other organs such as liver, pancreas, adrenals, placenta, Xenopus oocyte and general cell proliferation, paracrine and autocrine actions of these hormones inside the ovary and the testis, activin receptor, inhibin receptor, follistatin, effects of exogenous administration of recombinant inhibin and activin, and TGF-beta super gene family.
