Description
Luteinizing Hormone-Releasing Hormone (LH-RH) is a decapeptide originating from the hypothalamus that triggers the release of gonadotropins by interacting with specific receptors on pituitary cells. It plays a crucial role in regulating reproductive functions. Besides its role in the pituitary gland, LH-RH is found to have effects in peripheral organs like the prostate, endometrium, breast, and ovary, indicating its involvement in local tissue functions. LH-RH's presence has been noted in cancer cells and tumors of reproductive organs, suggesting a connection between LH-RH and conditions like prostate cancer and gynecological cancers, showcasing its significance beyond reproductive control.

About TFA salt
Trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) is a common counterion from the purification process using High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). The presence of TFA can affect the peptide's net weight, appearance, and solubility.
Impact on Net Weight: The TFA salt contributes to the total mass of the product. In most cases, the peptide content constitutes >80% of the total weight, with TFA accounting for the remainder.
Solubility: TFA salts generally enhance the solubility of peptides in aqueous solutions.
In Biological Assays: For most standard in vitro assays, the residual TFA levels do not cause interference. However, for highly sensitive cellular or biochemical studies, please be aware of its presence.
