Gonadotropin-releasing hormones and Psychosis
Background: There have been reports of transient psychosis in women medicated for gynecologic conditions.Objective: The aim of this paper was to explore this literature.Method: The PubMed and Google Scholar databases were searched for relevant case reports Results: The following reports were found: psychosis induced by gonadotropinreleasing hormone in the treatment of endometriosis, by clomiphe...
متن کامل1 Gonadotropin - Releasing Hormones : Why Do Fish Need Multiple Forms ?
Vertebrate skeletal muscles contain muscle fibers of several types, which can be broadly classified as slow or fast fibers, on the basis of differences in contraction speeds, metabolic activities, and motoneuron innervation. We have examined the potential roles of growth factors of members of the hedgehog and TGF-ß gene families in the formation of slow muscle fibers including muscle pioneer (M...
متن کاملMolecular biology of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH)-I, GnRH-II, and their receptors in humans.
In human beings, two forms of GnRH, termed GnRH-I and GnRH-II, encoded by separate genes have been identified. Although these hormones share comparable cDNA and genomic structures, their tissue distribution and regulation of gene expression are significantly dissimilar. The actions of GnRH are mediated by the GnRH receptor, which belongs to a member of the rhodopsin-like G protein-coupled recep...
متن کاملInvertebrate Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone-Related Peptides and Their Receptors: An Update
Gonadotropin-releasing hormones (GnRHs) play pivotal roles in reproductive functions via the hypothalamus, pituitary, and gonad axis, namely, HPG axis in vertebrates. GnRHs and their receptors (GnRHRs) are likely to be conserved in invertebrate deuterostomes and lophotrochozoans. All vertebrate and urochordate GnRHs are composed of 10 amino acids, whereas protostome, echinoderm, and amphioxus G...
متن کاملMolecular Coevolution of Neuropeptides Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone and Kisspeptin with their Cognate G Protein-Coupled Receptors
The neuropeptides gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) and kisspeptin (KiSS), and their receptors gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor (GnRHR) and kisspeptin receptor (KiSSR) play key roles in vertebrate reproduction. Multiple paralogous isoforms of these genes have been identified in various vertebrate species. Two rounds of genome duplication in early vertebrates likely contributed to the...
