Gonadorelin is a tropic hormone and agonist of the gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor (GNRHR; Ki = 13 nM in CHO cells expressing the human receptor).1 It stimulates luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) release from rat anterior pituitary cultures when administered at a dose of 0.1 μg.2 It also stimulates LH release from bovine anterior pituitary cultures at a concentration of 1 μM.3 In vivo, gonadorelin induces ovulation in rats pretreated with fluphenazine (Item No. 23555; ED50 = 610.3 ng/kg).4 Formulations containing gonadorelin have been used as diagnostic agents to assess pituitary gland function.
