-degrading ectoenzyme (pyroglutamyl peptidase II (PPII)) present on tanycytes, a group of ependymal cells lining the third ventricle whose end-feet are in proximity with TRH terminals and portal vessels ( Sánchez et al . 2009 ). In the pituitary and upon binding to its

-protein coupled receptor, TRHR, and activates a Gq/11 dependent pathway involving mobilization of intracellular calcium and activation of protein kinase C, culminating in TSH synthesis and secretion. Pyroglutamyl peptidase II (PPII) activity subsequently mediates
