Conversion of a gonadotropin-releasing hormone antagonist to an agonist
TL;DR: The results suggest that a pure antagonist becomes an agonist when it is capable of bringing two receptor molecules within a critical distance, d, and indicate that formation of the receptor microaggregate itself is sufficient to stimulate a transmembrane response system.

Eli Hazum,P. Michael Conn +1 more
TL;DR: GnRH and its analogs also have direct actions on the gonads in some species by inhibiting steroidogenesis in males and ovulation in females, and it is unlikely that hypothalamic-derived GnRH is responsible for these actions (because of the very low concentrations in the peripheral circulations).
Book

TL;DR: Animal Models for the Study of Human Disease identifies important animal models and assesses the advantages and disadvantages of each model for the study of human disease, covering a broad range of animal models used in research for human disease.
