Taltirelin is a superagonist at the human thyrotropin-releasing hormone receptor
Taltirelin (TAL) is a thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) analog that is approved for use in humans in Japan. In this study, we characterized TAL binding to and signaling by the human TRH receptor (TRH-R) in a model cell system.

Central Regulation of Pituitary-Thyroid Axis Under Physiological and Pathophysiological Conditions. [PDF]
TRH is a tripeptide amide that functions as a neurotransmitter but also serves as a neurohormone that has a critical role in the central regulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axis.

Evaluation of Potential Hormonal Activities of Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera)
ABSTRACT Ashwagandha is a widely used herb in traditional medicine systems, particularly Ayurveda. Despite its extensive tradition, growing concerns regarding its potential endocrinological effects have prompted scientific scrutiny. This review systematically evaluates the current preclinical, clinical, and case study evidence concerning AS's effects ...

The G alpha q and G alpha 11 proteins couple the thyrotropin-releasing hormone receptor to phospholipase C in GH3 rat pituitary cells [PDF]
Thyrotropin-releasing hormone stimulates the hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) in GH3 cell membranes. The stimulation of the phosphoinositide phospholipase C (PI/PLC) activity can be blocked by incubation of GH3 membranes with ...

Effects of Obesity-Inducing Ventromedial Hypothalamic Lesions on Pulsatile Growth Hormone and Insulin Secretion: Evidence for the Existence of a Growth Hormone-Releasing Factor [PDF]
The nature of and neural mechanisms involved in GH and insulin responses to obesity-inducing ventromedial hypothalamic (VMH) lesions, which infringed on the arcuate nucleus, were examined in freely moving chronically cannulated male rats.

Intranasal (IN) delivery of PEGylated PLGA nanoparticles (NPs) loaded with oxytocin (OT) (OT‐NP‐PEG) is investigated as a strategy to enhance OT transport to the brain for treating autism and other neuropsychiatric disorders. The optimized NP formulation demonstrates appropriate physicochemical characteristics, improved stability, and enhanced mucosal ...

Evidence that the TRH-like peptide pyroglutamyl-glutamyl-prolineamide in human serum may not be secreted by the pituitary gland [PDF]
Recent studies have revealed that TRH-like immunoreactivity (TRH-LI) in human serum is predominantly pGlu-Glu-ProNH2 (< EEP-NH2), a peptide previously found in, among others tissues, the pituitary gland of various mammalian ...
