A series of des-His2 octa- and nonapeptide analogues of luliberin (luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone) with modifications in the 1 and 6 positions, and in some instances the 10 position, has been prepared. Some of these analogues are potent inhibitors of luliberin in vitro and in vivo. The use of ultraviolet absorption measurements for evaluating peptides containing tyrosine and tryptophan is described. An efficient synthesis of O-methyl-d-tyrosine is reported.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007987 Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone A decapeptide that stimulates the synthesis and secretion of both pituitary gonadotropins, LUTEINIZING HORMONE and FOLLICLE STIMULATING HORMONE. GnRH is produced by neurons in the septum PREOPTIC AREA of the HYPOTHALAMUS and released into the pituitary portal blood, leading to stimulation of GONADOTROPHS in the ANTERIOR PITUITARY GLAND.
