New Insights into the Control of Pulsatile GnRH Release: the Role of Kiss1/Neurokinin B Neurons

Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) is the ultimate output signal of an intricate network of neuroendocrine factors that, acting on the pituitary, trigger gonadotropin release. In turn, gonadopropins exert their trophic action on the gonads to stimulate the synthesis of sex steroids thus completin...
