General description

Goserelin acetate is a synthetic decapaptide, which is a potent analog of LHRH (luteinizing hormone releasing hormone).
Goserelin is used to guard ovary during breast-cancer adjuvant chemotherapy.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Goserelin acetate peptide results in significant inhibition of gonadotropin release and suppresses steroidogenesis in ovaries and testis. Thus, it leads to a reduction of testosterone to castration levels and estrogen to postmenopausal levels. Therefore, this peptide is used for reducing testosterone levels in patients with locally advanced prostate cancer.
Goserelin is a synthetic analog of LHRH (leutinizing hormone releasing hormone). Goserelin is a LHRH agonist It is used in prostate cancer and breast cancer therapies and also in the treatment of endometriosis.
