There are two known thyrotropin releasing hormone (TRH) receptors, TRHR1 and TRHR2 (which as yet has not been identified in humans). Both receptors are members of the 7-transmembrane, g protein coupled receptor family. The TRHR are found in the brain and when bound by TRH result act through phospholipase C to increase intracellular inositol triphosphate.
