Description
Cetrorelix acetate is a potent decapeptide GnRH (gonadotropin-releasing hormone) antagonist that competitively blocks pituitary GnRH receptors, thereby inhibiting LH and FSH secretion. This mechanism makes it invaluable in assisted reproductive technology (ART), hormone-dependent cancer research, and studies of reproductive physiology. Offered at 99.92% purity and synthesized in a GMP-certified facility, it delivers consistent performance for laboratory applications.

Mechanism of Action & Research Applications
Cetrorelix blocks GnRH receptors in the anterior pituitary, preventing the release of LH and FSH. This suppression is crucial in:
Regulating controlled ovarian stimulation in reproductive research
Studying hormone-dependent cancer models
Investigating feedback mechanisms in reproductive endocrinology
Side Effects (For Research Context Only)
In experimental models, Cetrorelix may lead to significant reductions in circulating LH and FSH levels, suppression of ovulation, and modulation of hormone feedback loops. These effects help elucidate reproductive pathways under controlled lab conditions.
