CAS 38234-21-8: Fertirelin
Description:Fertirelin, with the CAS number 38234-21-8, is a synthetic peptide that acts as a gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) analog. It is primarily used in veterinary medicine, particularly in the management of reproductive functions in animals. Fertirelin stimulates the release of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) from the pituitary gland, thereby promoting gonadal function and enhancing fertility. The substance is characterized by its ability to mimic the natural GnRH, leading to increased production of sex hormones. Fertirelin is typically administered via injection and is known for its relatively short half-life, necessitating careful dosing and timing in therapeutic applications. Its use is subject to regulatory oversight, and it is important to consider potential side effects and contraindications when used in clinical settings. As with any hormone-related treatment, monitoring is essential to ensure efficacy and safety in the target population.
