SLU-PP-332
Summary
Gonadorelin is the synthetic form of endogenous GnRH (gonadotropin-releasing hormone). It stimulates the pituitary to release LH and FSH, maintaining testicular function and testosterone production. Widely used alongside TRT to prevent testicular atrophy and preserve fertility.
SLU-PP-332 is a small molecule exercise mimetic that activates estrogen-related receptors ERRalpha and ERRdelta (ERRa/d), transcription factors that drive oxidative metabolism programs. In animal studies it significantly enhanced endurance capacity and metabolic fitness without exercise, mimicking many of the cardiovascular and metabolic adaptations of aerobic training.

SubQ, Intranasal
Oral (research), Subcutaneous (research)
Research
Typical Dose
100 mcg
Not established for humans; rodent studies used ~100 mg/kg/day
Frequency
Twice daily (every 12 hours)
Once daily in rodent studies
Key Benefits
  • Maintains testicular size during TRT
  • Preserves fertility and sperm production during testosterone use
  • Stimulates endogenous LH/FSH production
  • Maintains HPG axis function during exogenous hormone use
  • Used for HCG-free TRT protocols
  • Helps restart natural testosterone production (PCT)
  • Significant enhancement of aerobic endurance capacity
  • Increases mitochondrial density and oxidative metabolism in muscle
  • Promotes beneficial shift toward oxidative muscle fiber phenotype
  • Improves cardiac efficiency and cardiovascular fitness markers
  • Potential for obesity, metabolic syndrome, and heart failure treatment
  • Exercise mimetic for populations unable to exercise (disability, frailty, disease)
Side Effects
  • Injection site reactions
  • Headache
  • Nausea at initiation
  • Tachycardia (rare)
  • +1 more
  • Limited human data; all studies are preclinical (rodent)
  • Unknown cardiovascular effects with long-term or high-dose use in humans
  • Potential hormonal interactions via ERR pathway (ERRs modulate estrogen-related signaling)
  • Off-target effects not fully characterized
