Description of GnRH-I

GnRH-I is a neuropeptide capable of regulating the release of gonadotropins, used to modulate the physiological functions of the reproductive system[1]. GnRH-I stimulates the anterior pituitary to release gonadotropins, thereby regulating the synthesis and secretion of gonadal hormones and maintaining reproductive endocrine balance[2]. GnRH-I can be used to study the regulatory mechanisms of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis and its role in reproductive-related diseases[3]. GnRH-I may also play a significant role in the growth of ovarian tumors[4].

In vitro, GnRH-I (3nM) stimulation of gonadotropin cells from neonatal rat pituitary for 3 hours significantly promotes the secretion of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). This process depends on the activation of intracellular calcium signaling and cyclic nucleotide signaling pathways[5]. Treatment of human extravillous cytotrophoblasts (EVTs) with GnRH-I (0.1–100nM) for 24 hours significantly upregulates the mRNA and protein expression levels of urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA), while downregulating the expression of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1). This enhances extracellular matrix degradation capacity, thereby promoting the invasive potential of trophoblast cells during early pregnancy[6].

In vivo, a single intravenous bolus of GnRH-I (0.01–10μg/kg body weight) administered to female rhesus monkeys aged 8–12 months and 21–23 months significantly promotes the release of plasma luteinizing hormone (LH), with younger individuals showing greater sensitivity[7].

Protocol of GnRH-I

Cell experiment [1]:

Cell lines

Human extravillous cytotrophoblasts (EVTs)

Preparation Method

EVTs were cultured in DMEM supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum at 37°C, 5% CO₂. Cells were treated with GnRH-I at concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 100nM for 24 hours.

Reaction Conditions

0.1–100nM; 24h

Applications

GnRH-I significantly increased urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) mRNA and protein expression in a dose-dependent manner, with maximal effects observed at 100nM. Concurrently, GnRH-I reduced plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) mRNA and protein levels, altering the uPA/PAI-1 ratio to promote trophoblast invasiveness.

Animal experiment [2]:

Animal models

Rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta)

Preparation Method

Monkeys were intravenously administered a single bolus injection of GnRH-I at doses of 0.01, 0.1, 1, or 10μg/kg body weight during the midluteal phase. Blood samples were collected remotely via vascular catheters at -10, 0, 10, 20, 30, 60, and 120 minutes post-injection.

Dosage form

0.01–10μg/kg; i.v.

Applications

GnRH-I significantly increased plasma luteinizing hormone (LH) concentrations in a dose-dependent manner, with peak responses observed within 10 minutes. The LH release was more pronounced in young animals compared to old monkeys, indicating age-related sensitivity differences.
