Abstract
Gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) controls the activity of the gonadotrope cells of the pituitary gland and, as a consequence, is a critical component of the endocrine cascade that determines the growth, development, and functional activity of testicular tissue. The use of GnRH and GnRH analogs is common in domestic animal production systems. Although GnRH and GnRH analogs are most commonly used to control the fertility and reproductive events in female animals, GnRH agonists and antagonists are increasingly used to modulate the fertility, behavior, and productivity of male animals as well. This review will focus on recent advances in this use of GnRH agonists and antagonists.
