Serum thyrotropin releasing hormone (TRH)-degrading activity: a sensitive and rapid radiochemical assay procedure. 1978

J T Neary, and C Nakamura, and F Maloof, and M Soodak

A rapid and sensitive method has been developed to assay thyrotropin releasing hormone (TRH)-degrading activity in serum. In this assay, the formation of proline, a major serum degradation product of TRH (pGlu-His-Pro-NH2), is measured. The procedure is based on the finding that proline can be readily separated from TRH with Dowex 50 by a batchwise procedure in a test tube.

D013973 Thyrotropin-Releasing Hormone A tripeptide that stimulates the release of THYROTROPIN and PROLACTIN. It is synthesized by the neurons in the PARAVENTRICULAR NUCLEUS of the HYPOTHALAMUS. After being released into the pituitary portal circulation, TRH (was called TRF) stimulates the release of TSH and PRL from the ANTERIOR PITUITARY GLAND.
