摘要:
As a preliminary step in searching for a pharmacological treatment for gonadotroph adenomas, we administered the GnRH antagonist analog Nal-Glu GnRH to five patients, four men and a woman, with FSH-secreting gonadotroph adenomas in order to determine its effect on FSH secretion. Administration of a single 10-mg dose of Nal-Glu GnRH to four of the patients produced a significant decrease in the serum FSH concentration in two patients and returned the FSH level t o normal in only one. Administration of 5 mg Nal-Glu every 12h for 7 days, however, produced a significant (P < 0.001) decrease, and to within the normal range, in four of the five patients (mean ± SEM, 32.7 ± 5.6 IU/L during the 3 days before treatment and 9.8 ± 1.4 IU/L during the last 3 days of treatment). Also, in response to the 7-day treatment, LH fell significantly in all five patients, a-subunit fell in three, and testosterone fell in all four men. Administration for 6 weeks of the GnRH agonist analog leuprolide did not decrease the serum FSH concentration of one of the patients whose serum FSH did decrease in response to Nal-Glu GnRH. We conclude that repetitive administration of Nal-Glu GnRH may often inhibit FSH secretion by gonadotroph adenomas and that FSH secretion by gonadotroph adenomas may be dependent on endogenous GnRH secretion. © 1990 by The Endocrine Society.
