✦ Synopsis


Locusta migratoria has three adipokinetic hormones, adipokinetic hormone-I, II and III. Adipokinetic hormone-III ( or = 5.33 x 10(-10)mol x 1(-1)) at inhibiting acetate uptake into locust fat body in vitro, especially so when it is only moderately potent in mobilizing lipid in vivo. The Trp7 in adipokinetic hormones-III, alongside the Trp8 characteristic of adipokinetic hormones, is not seen in any other adipokinetic hormones. To test whether this is hormone-III in the assay in vitro, novel peptides were synthesised to include or remove this structural motif. Thus

## Abstract Four analogues of LH‐RH modified in position 5 have been synthesized using either classical procedures or the solid phase method. The gonadotropin‐releasing activities were determined by radioimmunological measurements of LH and FSH __in vivo__ and __in vitro__ and the immunoreactivitie
