What is the effect of GnRH produced by hypothalamus?

  • Stimulates the synthesis and secretion of androgens

  • Stimulates secretion of milk in mammary glands

  • Stimulates foetal ejection reflex

  • Stimulates synthesis of carbohydrates from non- carbohydrates in liver


A.

Stimulates the synthesis and secretion of androgens

Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone (GnRH) is a releasing hormone. It stimulates the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland to secrete two gonadotropic hormones- FSH (Follicle Stimulating Hormone) and LH (Luteinising Hormone). 

In males, LH stimulates testosterone production from the interstitial cells of the testes (leydig cells). FSH stimulates testicular growth and enhances the production of an androgen- binding protein by the Sertoli cells, which are a component of the testicular tubule necessary for sustaining the maturing sperm cells.

In females, FSH stimulates the growth of ovarian follicles in the ovary before the release of an egg from one follicle at ovulation. It also increases oestradiol production. LH triggers ovulation and development of the corpus luteum.
