Triptorelin is a synthetic decapeptide agonist analog of luteinizing hormone releasing hormone (LHRH). It works by decreasing the production of certain hormones, which reduces testosterone levels in the body. Animal studies comparing triptorelin to native GnRH found that triptorelin had 13 fold higher releasing activity for luteinizing hormone, and 21-fold higher releasing activity for follicle-stimulating hormone. Triptorelin is indicated for the palliative treatment of advanced prostate cancer.

Sample Use Guides

In Vivo Use Guide
Administered as a single intramuscular injection in either buttock. Due to different release characteristics, the dosage strengths are not additive and must be selected based upon the desired dosing schedule. • 3.75 mg every 4 weeks. • 11.25 mg every 12 weeks • 22.5 mg every 24 weeks
Route of Administration: Intramuscular
In Vitro Use Guide
Triptorelin stimulates both oxytocin (OT) and vasopressin (AVP) release from the rat hypothalamo-neurohypophysial (H-N) system at concentrations of 10(-9)-10(-5) M. The strongest effect was displayed by triptorelin at a concentration of 10(-7) M.
