The cryptic gonadotropin-releasing hormone neuronal system of human basal ganglia

The cryptic gonadotropin-releasing hormone neuronal system of human basal ganglia

Human reproduction is controlled by ~2000 hypothalamic gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) neurons. Here, we report the discovery and characterization of additional ~150,000–200,000 GnRH-synthesizing cells in the human basal ganglia and basal forebrain. Nearly all extrahypothalamic GnRH neurons ex...
