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 کاملTwo Subgroups of Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone Neurons Control Gonadotropin Secretion in Rats.
Two distinct subgroups of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) neurons are involved in the control of luteinizing hormone secretion, at least in rats: one subgroup located in the mediobasal hypothalamus constitutes the GnRH pulse generator associated with opioid neurons, and the other located in the preoptic area constitutes the GnRH surge generator associated with gamma-aminobutyric acid neur...
متن کاملImmunization of pigs against chicken gonadotropin-releasing hormone-II and lamprey gonadotropin-releasing hormone-III: effects on gonadotropin secretion and testicular function.
The objective of this experiment was to evaluate the effects of active immunization against 2 GnRH isoforms on gonadotropin secretion and testicular function in pigs. Synthetic chicken (c) GnRH-II and lamprey (l) GnRH-III peptides, with the common pGlu-His-Trp-Ser sequence at the N-terminal omitted, were conjugated to BSA. Forty-eight male piglets were randomly assigned to 1 of 4 treatments. Pi...
متن کاملMolecular regulation of gonadotropin secretion by gonadotropin-releasing hormone in salmonid fishes.
Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) plays a central role in the control of reproductive function in vertebrates. In salmonids, salmon GnRH (sGnRH) secreted by preoptic GnRH neurons regulates gonadal maturation through stimulation of synthesis and release of pituitary gonadotropins (GTHs). In addition, several lines of our evidence indicate that sGnRH is involved in spawning behavior, and serv...
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...
