21. Data show that synthetic parallel dimer of the B-chain of INSL3 is a potent inhibitor of the native peptide's binding to its receptor, RXFP2. PMID:20560146
22. The current knowledge of INSL3, its involvement in testicular descent and germ cell survival, verifies that this Leydig cell hormone is an important player in testicular physiology[review] PMID:20550598

30. the only clinical consequence of alterations of the INSL3-LGR8 system seems to be failure of the testis to normally descend in the scrotum during embryonic development, without affecting the spermatogenic and endocrine components of the testis itself PMID:12970298
31. Analysis of men treated with different combinations of hormones of the hypothalamus-pituitary-testis axis suggests that the production of INSL3 is related to LH in a manner similar to that of the LH-testosterone axis. PMID:15579743
