What is Gonadorelin?
Research Focus: GH, Reproductive
Gonadorelin is the synthetic form of Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone (GnRH). It is a decapeptide that stimulates the pituitary gland to release Luteinizing Hormone (LH) and Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH).
At a Glance
GnRH is the master hormone that controls the reproductive axis (Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Gonadal axis). Gonadorelin is used in research to test or stimulate the function of this axis. This section provides a general overview of its research context.
About Gonadorelin
GnRH is the master hormone that controls the reproductive axis (Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Gonadal axis). Gonadorelin is used in research to test or stimulate the function of this axis.
How It Works
Pituitary Stimulation
Acts on GnRH receptors in the pituitary, triggering a pulsatile release of LH and FSH.
Testosterone and Estrogen Production
LH and FSH, in turn, stimulate the gonads (testes/ovaries) to produce sex hormones.
Current Research Insights
Endocrine Regulator
Gonadorelin is a fundamental tool in endocrine research, used to understand and modulate the body's natural production of reproductive hormones.
Areas of Study
Hormone Deficiency
Investigated for stimulating endogenous hormone production in cases of secondary hypogonadism.
Fertility Research
Studied for its role in ovulation induction and spermatogenesis.
Gonadorelin is strictly intended for laboratory and clinical research:
- Available exclusively from authorized research suppliers
- Not FDA-approved for general therapeutic use
- Comprehensive safety, efficacy, and dosage guidelines remain under ongoing investigation
FAQs
Research
