The Hormonal Contol of Neuropeptide Y and Gonadotropin-releasing Hormone Hypothalamic Neurons

The physiological mechanisms that control energy homeostasis are reciprocally linked to reproduction. However, the neuroendocrine circuitry that registers endocrine cues to direct homeostatic responses in energy balance and reproduction remain unknown. Neuropeptide Y (NPY) neurons have emerged as a...
