Buserelin is an analogue of the hypothalamic hormone, gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (gonadorelin). In chronic use it reduces pituitary secretion of gonadotrophin, which results in reduced secretion of sex hormones by the ovaries or testes. Buserelin is used to treat endometriosis, and also as an anticancer agent for cancer of the prostate gland. It is also used prior to in vitro fertilization. [Pg.22]

The episodic secretion of the hypothalamic hormone, gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH), stimulates synthesis and release of the gonadotrophins. LH (luteinizing hormone) and FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone), from the anterior pituitary. Despite the names, both gontidotrophins act cooperatively on the ovaries in the woman and the testes in the man to stimulate sex hormone secretion and reproductive processes. [Pg.156]

Benzoylation inactivated the hormone gonadotrophin (210). See also papers by Lettr on the benzoylation of antigens (211). [Pg.196]

Prolactin is peptide hormone secreted by the pituitary gland. It acts on prolactin receptors in breast tissue where it stimulates production of casein and lactalbu-min. It also acts on the testes and ovaries to inhibit the effects of gonadotrophins. Since the secretion of prolactin is under tonic dopaminergic inhibition by the hypothalamus, dopamine D2-receptor antagonists... [Pg.999]

True endocrine hormones, however, remain a fairly well defined group. Virtually all of the hormones used therapeutically (discussed below) fit into this grouping. Examples include insulin, glucagon, GH and the gonadotrophins. [Pg.291]

The gonadotrophins are a family of hormones for which the gonads represent their primary target (Table 11.8). They directly and indirectly regulate reproductive function and, in some cases, the development of secondary sexual characteristics. Insufficient endogenous production of any... [Pg.310]
