Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) Written By: Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH), also known as luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone, a neurohormone consisting of 10 amino acids that is produced in the arcuate nuclei of the hypothalamus. GnRH stimulates the synthesis and secretion of the two gonadotropinsâluteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH)âby the anterior pituitary gland.
GnRH, secreted by the hypothalamus, stimulates the production of FSH and LH from the pituitary gland. These hormones encourage the development of sperm cells within the testicles, which then produce inhibin and inhibit the production of GnRH, FSH and LH in a negative feedback loop.
