| 설명 | 여성의 월경은 정해진 순서에 의해 일어나게 된다. 먼저 난포자극호르몬이 뇌에서 분비되어 여성의 난소를 자극하게 되면 난포가 자극받아 난포호르몬(에스트로젠)을 분비하게 되고 이것은 다시 되먹이기 메커니즘 의해 뇌에 작용을 하여 황체화호르몬이 뇌에서 분비되고 이것이 이른바 절정에 이르렀을 때, 난포에서 배란이 일어나게 된다. 이후 난포는 황체로 변하게 되며, 배란된 난자가 수정되지 아니하면, 황체는 황체호르몬(프로게스테론)을 분비한 뒤 퇴화되고 곧 이어 월경이 일어나게 된다. 이 일은 정상적인 대부분의 여성에서 28일을 주기로 일어나며, 대개 황체화호르몬 절정 이후 마지막은 14일로 일정하다고 한다. |

| msh-releasing hormone | A polypeptide hormone which originates in the hypothalamus and stimulates secretion of melanocyte-stimulating hormones in the pituitary gland. (12 Dec 1998) |

| corticotropin-releasing hormone | <endocrinology, physiology> A neuropeptide released by the hypothalamus that stimulates the release of corticotropin by the anterior pituitary gland. Chemical name: Corticotropin-releasing factor Synonym: corticoliberin, corticotropin releasing factor. (12 Dec 1998) |
| prolactin-releasing hormone | A polypeptide hormone that originates in the hypothalamus and stimulates the secretion of prolactin in the pituitary gland. (12 Dec 1998) |
| thyroid releasing hormone | <endocrinology> Thyroid releasing hormone (TRH) is a byproduct of the hypothalamus and serves to stimulate the pituitary gland to produce thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH). TRH is produced by the hypothalamus when thyroid hormone (T3 and T4) blood levels are low. (27 Sep 1997) |

| thyrotrophic releasing hormone | <endocrinology> Tripeptide (pyroGlu His Pro NH2) that releases thyrotrophin from the anterior pituitary by stimulating adenyl cyclase. May also have neurotransmitter and paracrine functions. (18 Nov 1997) |
| thyrotropin-releasing hormone | <protein> See thyrotrophic releasing hormone. (18 Nov 1997) |
| thyrotropin-releasing hormone stimulation test | TRH stimulation test, a test of pituitary response to injection of thyrotropin-releasing hormone, which normally stimulates pituitary secretion of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH, thyrotropin), used primarily to distinguish pituitary from hypothalamic causes of thyroid disorders; TSH does not rise in cases of pituitary dysfunction, but does rise in cases of hypothalamic disorders. (05 Mar 2000) |
| follicle-stimulating hormone-releasing factor | A decapeptide of hypothalamic origin capable of accelerating pituitary secretion of follitropin. Synonym: follicle-stimulating hormone-releasing factor, follicle-stimulating hormone-releasing hormone. Origin: follicle-stimulating hormone + L. Libero, to free, + -in (05 Mar 2000) |
| luteinising hormone releasing factor | A decapeptide releasing hormone (1182D) that stimulates release of luteinising hormone. (18 Nov 1997) |
| luteinizing hormone-releasing factor | Former name for luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bovine somatotropin | <protein> A growth hormone found incattle, a version of this hormone is also foundin all mammals, including humans. Injections of this hormonedramatically increase the milk production of lactating cows. In pastyears, the hormone was very expensive because it could only be taken from slaughtered cows, but in the early '90s researchers learned how to geneticallyengineered the bacterium E. Coli to produce it. Now, many dairy producers use the hormone, but the practice is controversial because the use of bST may increase the incidence of mastitis (udder infection) in cows, and the long-termhuman health effects of the slightly increased hormone levels in themilk from treated cows have not been established. See: porcine somatotrophin. (09 Oct 1997) |
| receptors, somatotropin | Cell surface proteins that bind somatotropin with high affinity and trigger intracellular changes influencing the behaviour of cells. Activation of growth hormone receptors regulates amino acid transport through cell membranes, RNA translation to protein, DNA transcription, and protein and amino acid catabolism in many cell types. Many of these effects are mediated indirectly through stimulation of the release of somatomedins. (12 Dec 1998) |
| porcine somatotropin | <protein> A growth hormone found inpigs, injections of or implants containing thishormone cause pigs over 100 pounds to gain more muscle and less fat. Previously the hormone was very expensive because it could only be taken from the pituitary glands of slaughtered pigs, but in the early '90s researchers learned how to genetically engineered the bacterium E. Coli to produce it. The FDA has not yet approved this hormone for use. See: bovine somatotrophin. (09 Oct 1997) |
| somatotropin | <protein> Hormone (191 amino acids) released by anterior pituitary that stimulates release of somatomedin, thereby causing growth. (18 Nov 1997) |
