[des-Gly10, D-Ala6]-LH-RH ethylamide acetate salt hydrate has been used: as an luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) agonist to synchronize a cohort of females ratsto synchronize naturally cycling rats to induce ovulation as a gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) analogue and as a supplement in Galap extender to dilute qualified ejaculate
Biochem/physiol Actions
Potent LH-RH agonist in rats and mice; reversibly delays sexual maturation in rats, stimulates spawning activity in fish. GnRH ( gonadotropin-releasing hormone, Glp-His-Trp-Ser-Tyr-Gly-Leu-Arg-Pro-Gly-NH2), which is also referred as LHRH (luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone) or gonadorelin, is crucial for mammalian reproduction and is released from hypothalamic neurons. It is responsible for the secretion of gonadotropins, luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), from the pituitary glands. Mutations in GnRH are associated with normosmic congenital hypogonadotropic hypogonadism.
