Lecirelin (Cat.No:I004300) is a synthetic peptide analogue of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH). It acts as a potent agonist of the GnRH receptor, stimulating the release of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) from the pituitary gland. Lecirelin is primarily used in veterinary medicine to induce ovulation in mares and synchronize estrus in livestock.
