Abstract
Five new luliberin analogues with shortened amino acid sequences have been synthesized. The different variants for obtaining the compounds under consideration are discussed. In an investigation of the biological activities of the analogues it was shown that they possess a pronounced action of the course of the ovulation processes in experimental animals.
