Triptorelin
Triptorelin is a synthetic decapeptide analog of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) that, upon continuous administration, causes pituitary desensitization and downregulation of GnRH receptors, leading to suppression of luteinizing hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone, and consequently sex hormone production. It is used for prostate cancer (androgen deprivation therapy), breast cancer, endometriosis, and precocious puberty. Its mechanism exploits the paradox that continuous GnRH receptor stimulation leads to receptor desensitization and hormonal castration.
