Differential effects of aging on activin A and its binding protein, follistatin, across the menopause transition  Nancy E. Reame, Ph.D., Jane L. Lukacs, Ph.D., Pamela Olton, B.S., Rudi Ansbacher, M.D., Vasantha Padmanabhan, Ph.D.  Fertility and Sterility  Volume 88, Issue 4, Pages 1003-1005 (October 2007) DOI: 10.1016/j.fertnstert.2006.12.009 Copyright © 2007 American Society for Reproductive Medicine Terms and Conditions

Figure 1 FSH, inhibin B, activin A, and FS 288 by study group. Data are mean ± standard error of the mean. For inhibin B, mean concentrations in the PM and OVX+ET groups were near the limits of assay detection, thus the standard error bars for these groups are not shown. Mean E2 concentrations are indicated at the top of the FSH panel. Significant group differences (∗, ∗∗) were determined by Kruskal-Wallis analysis of variance and post hoc Mann-Whitney U-test. Reame.
