L'inhibine est une hormone pepti- dique d'origine gonadique dont l'action inhibitrice sur la synthèse de la FSH a été suspectée dès 1932. Ce sont.

Quantification of inhibin A is part of the prenatal quad screen that can be administered during pregnancy at a gestational age of 16–18 weeks. An elevated inhibin A (along with an increased beta-hCG, decreased AFP, and a decreased estriol) is suggestive of the presence of a fetus with Down syndrome.
For medical purposes, measurement of inhibins in the circulation is a reliable marker for some types of ovarian cancer, and also a predictor for the conditions of spermatogenesis. Shlomo Melmed MB ChB, MACP, in Williams Textbook of Endocrinology, 2020
Inhibins compete for binding to type II activin receptors, preventing recruitment of type I receptors and thereby blocking activin signaling. Additional extracellular and intracellular proteins and mechanisms also serve to modulate the local activin signal.
Inhibin B is reciprocally elevated during the late luteal and early follicular phases of the menstrual cycle. Activin receptors are heteromeric complexes comprising type I (ActRI) and type II (ActRII) serine-threonine kinase receptors.
