Description
Triptorelin C64H82N18O13, Pyr-His-Trp-Ser-Tyr-D-Trp-Leu-Arg-Pro-Gly-NH2 is a synthetic analogue of gonadorelin (GnRH). The only change between GnRH and Triptorelin is the introduction of a residue of D-Triptophane instead of a glycine in position 6. As a result of the substitution of the 6th amino acid residue in the native molecule, the agonistic effect is more pronounced and the plasma half-life prolonged.
Triptorelin controls release of Luteinizing Hormone (LH) and Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) and also levels of testosterone and estrogen.
