The TRH-like peptides pGlu-Glu-Pro amide, pGlu-Phe-Pro amide, and pGlu-Gln-Pro amide were isolated and identified some years ago, and these peptides have been proven to be present in many tissues and fluids. The presence of TRH-like immunoreactivity distinct from TRH in

Fertilization promoting peptide (FPP), structurally similar to thyrotrophin releasing hormone, is produced by the prostate gland and secreted into seminal plasma. Recent in vitro studies have provided evidence that FPP elicits biologically relevant responses in mouse, human and boar spermatozoa.

Rat thyroid contains thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) and TRH-like peptides which react with TRH antisera. We have identified the TRH-like peptides in the thyroid and examined whether their levels are influenced by thyroid status. The peptides were extracted from the thyroid
