Luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) plays a crucial role in controlling the ovarian cycle in women. By modification of the molecular structure of this decapeptide, analogues were synthesized with agonistic or antagonistic effects o…

Fifty patients with proven endometriosis were treated for 6 to 9 months with a delayed release preparation of microcapsules of the luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LH-RH) agonist D-Trp6-LH-RH, injected intramuscularly at monthly inter…

Eight menstrually cycling women with proven endometriosis were treated with a delayed-release preparation of the superactive agonist D-Trp-6-LH-RH in biodegradable microcapsules, administered intramuscularly at intervals of 16 to 36 days fo…

Reversible temporary medical oophorectomy using long-acting agonist analogs of LH-RH was tried in three infertile patients suffering from large endometriomas of the ovary. These patients had stage IV disease according to the revised 1985 cl…

A sensitive and specific radioimmunoassay for [6-D-tryptophan]luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone [( D-Trp6]LH-RH) was developed and used for following the rate of liberation of [D-Trp6]LH-RH from a long-acting delivery system based on a …
