Application: Cetrorelix acetate is a synthetic decapeptide, mainly used in assisted reproductive technology, to prevent premature ovulation in patients with controlled ovarian stimulation. Cetrorelix is a gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonist, which can competitively bind to the receptors on the pituitary cell membrane with endogenous LHRH, thereby inhibiting the pituitary secretion of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) in a dose-dependent manner.
