Ovarian suppression with gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist reduces whole body protein turnover in women.
The age-related decline in fat-free mass is accelerated in women after menopause. The role of ovarian hormone deficiency in the regulation of fat-free mass, however, has not been clearly defined. To address this question, we examined the effect of ovarian hormone suppression on whole body protein metabolism. Whole body protein breakdown, oxidation, and synthesis were measured using [(13)C]leuci...

متن کاملGonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist-induced pituitary apoplexy
UNLABELLED Pituitary apoplexy represents an uncommon endocrine emergency with potentially life-threatening consequences. Drug-induced pituitary apoplexy is a rare but important consideration when evaluating patients with this presentation. We describe an unusual case of a patient with a known pituitary macroadenoma presenting with acute-onset third nerve palsy and headache secondary to tumour e...
متن کاملTreatment of gonadotropin dependent precocious puberty due to hypothalamic hamartoma with gonadotropin releasing hormone agonist depot.
The gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) secreting hypothalamic hamartoma (HH) is a congenital malformation consisting of a heterotopic mass of nervous tissue that contains GnRH neurosecretory neurons attached to the tuber cinereum or the floor of the third ventricle. HH is a well recognised cause of gonadotropin dependent precocious puberty (GDPP). Long term data are presented on eight childr...
متن کاملPulsatile administration of gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist to gilts actively immunized against gonadotropin-releasing hormone.
Sexually mature gilts (n = 20) were actively immunized against GnRH. Primary and booster immunizations of GnRH conjugated to bovine serum albumin induced production of antibodies in all gilts. Nineteen of the gilts became acyclic with suppressed concentrations of gonadotropins and estradiol. Intravenous challenges with 100 micrograms GnRH and 5 micrograms D-(Ala6, des-Gly-NH2(10)) ethylamide Gn...
