Anti-GNRH2

This gene encodes a secreted peptide hormone and member of the gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) family of proteins. The encoded protein regulates reproductive function by stimulating the production and release of the gonadotropins follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH). The encoded protein may inhibit endometrial, ovarian, prostate, and breast cancer cell proliferation. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. Protein function: Stimulates the secretion of gonadotropins, it stimulates the secretion of both luteinizing and follicle-stimulating hormones. [The UniProt Consortium]
