Abstract:
Synthetic GRP and its analogues ,GRP-NH
2,Glu
7.9.14 Lys
6.10 GRP(6~14),Phe
14GRP(5~14)andPhe
14GRP,at the concentration of 0.05 mmol·L
-1 were shown tohave stimulatory effect on LH secretion in cultured mouse pituitary in vitro. The luteotropin releasingactivity of GRP and its analogues was estimated to be 115.4,114.2,140.0,162.0 and 179.0%ofthe control group,respectively. Subcutaneous administration of Phe14GRP on days 7~9 and 1~5 of pregnancy and phe
14GRP(5~14)on days 2~4 of gestation at dosage of 1 mg·d
-1(eachmouse)caused fetal death in 40~60% of mice.
