lutropin การใช้
- Glycoprotein hormones such as lutropin, which triggers release of the egg during ovulation, must stimulate their receptors in pulses to avoid receptor desensitisation.
- More purified forms of urinary gonadotropins may reduce the LH portion in relation to FSH . Recombinant LH is available as lutropin alfa ( Luveris ).
- Knockout mice lacking the enzyme required to add the sulphated GalNAc capping structure show longer half-lives for lutropin, which results in increased receptor activation and oestrogen production.
