PACAP (1-38), human, ovine, rat (Pituitary Adenylate Cyclase Activating Polypeptide 38), is a neuropeptide comprising 38 amino acid residues.

Bovine pituitary extract is a derivative from the pituitary gland of cattle, utilized as a mitogenic supplement in serum-free growth media.

YM 218 is a novel, potent, selective antagonist of nonpeptide vasopressin V1A receptor.

Cyproterone acetate (Cyproterone 17-O-acetate) binds the androgen receptor (AR), thereby preventing androgen-induced receptor activation in target tissues and inhibiting the growth of testosterone-sensitive tumor cells. Cyproterone acetate is the acetate salt of a synthetic steroidal antiandrogen with weak progestational and antineoplastic activities. This agent also exerts progestational agonist properties at the level of the pituitary that reduce luteinizing hormone (LH), resulting in reductions in testicular androgen secretion and serum testosterone levels. Treatment with cyproterone alone results in incomplete suppression of serum testosterone levels.Cyproterone binds the androgen receptor (AR), thereby preventing androgen-induced receptor activation in target tissues and inhibiting the growth of testosterone-sensitive tumor cells.

Relugolix (RVT-601) is an orally available, non-peptide gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH or luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH)) antagonist, with potential antineoplastic activity. Relugolix competitively binds to and blocks the GnRH receptor in the anterior pituitary gland, which both prevents GnRH binding to the GnRH receptor and inhibits the secretion and release of both luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH). In males, the inhibition of LH secretion prevents the release of testosterone from Leydig cells in the testes. Since testosterone is required to sustain prostate growth, reducing testosterone levels may inhibit hormone-dependent prostate cancer cell proliferation.

alpha-Endorphin acetate is related peptides of the pro-opiomelanocortin family with characteristic biological activities, were purified to homogeneity from single human pituitary.

ACTH 1-14 acetate(25696-21-3 free base) (Adrenocorticotropic Hormone Fragment 1-14 acetate) is a fragment of adrenocorticotrophin, which regulates cortisol and androgen production.Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), also known as corticotropin, is produced and secreted by the anterior pituitary gland. ACTH is an important component of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis as a response to biological stress.

Metyrapone (NSC-25265) is an inhibitor of the enzyme STEROID 11-BETA-MONOOXYGENASE. It is used as a test of the feedback hypothalamic-pituitary mechanism in the diagnosis of CUSHING SYNDROME.

Metyrapone Tartrate is an inhibitor of the STEROID 11-beta-monooxygenase enzyme which is used as a test for feedback hypothalamic-pituitary mechanism in the diagnosis of Cushing SYNDROME.

Cabergoline (FCE-21336) is an ergot derived-dopamine D2-like receptor agonist. It has high affinity for D2, D3, and 5-HT2B receptors (Ki=0.7, 1.5, and 1.2, respectively).Cabergoline permits rapid and effective hormonal and tumor control by normalizing prolactin-producing pituitary adenomas levels.

PGlu-3-methyl-His-Pro-NH2 TFA enhances binding to pituitary TRH receptors, thereby increasing the stimulation of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) release from the pituitary.

Pregnant mare serum gonadotropin (PMSG) functions as a gonadotropin that enhances follicular development and ovulation in animals. This compound operates by modulating blood hormones, gonadotropins, and cytoplasmic estradiol receptors in the anterior pituitary and hypothalamus. Commonly employed in livestock to boost reproductive efficiency, PMSG is also valuable for research focused on estrous cycle regulation.

Vasopressin-d5 TFA is the TFA salt form of Vasopressin-d5, an isotopically labeled derivative of Vasopressin. Vasopressin, a cyclic nonapeptide, is synthesized in the medial hypothalamus and plays a critical role in the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis by enhancing the stimulation of corticotropin-releasing factor, thereby regulating the secretion of adrenocorticotropic hormone. Additionally, Vasopressin acts as a neurotransmitter, exerting its effects through interaction with specific G-protein-coupled receptors.

Fenabutene regulates pituitary activity.

Bam 12P acetate is the putative enkephalin precursor in bovine adrenal, pituitary, and hypothalamus.

Apiol analogous is an analogue of apiole, widely used in biochemical experiments. Apiole can act as antioxidant, antifungal, anticancerous, abortifacient, acaricidal, phytotoxic, antitumor, and antiproliferative agents. Apiol can affect the hypothalamic-pituitary axis, regulate the menstrual cycle, induce G0/G1 cell cycle arrest, and inhibit cancer cells.

Win 45164 is an orally active ligand for the glucocorticoid receptor (Glucocorticoid Receptor), exhibiting activity that inhibits the pituitary-adrenal axis. It enhances liver glycogen deposition and thymolysis in adrenalectomized male rats. Additionally, Win 45164 possesses anti-inflammatory properties and is applicable in research related to inflammation and neurological disorders.

Delmadinone acetate is an orally active compound used to control estrus and ovulation in both female and male pets. It induces adrenal suppression by inhibiting the pituitary release of ACTH.

Estrone acetate (Hogival) is an estrogen derivative and an activator of estrogen receptors (ER). This compound can enhance breast development, stimulate the secretion of pituitary prolactin, and induce both the proliferation and activation of lactotrophs, evidenced by the reduction in prolactin storage granule size and the increase in the volume density of the rough endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus. Estrone acetate holds potential for endocrinological research and for investigating the mechanisms by which estrogen influences pituitary function, prolactin regulation, and breast tumor models.
