Intracerebroventricular administration of melanin-concentrating hormone suppresses pulsatile luteinizing hormone release in the female rat.
Melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH) has been reported to be involved in the regulation of feeding behaviour in rats and mice. Because many neuropeptides that influence ingestive behaviour also regulate reproductive function, the present study was designed to determine if central administration of MCH changes pulsatile secretion of luteinizing hormone (LH) in the rats. Wistar-Imamichi strain fem...
متن کاملCentral estrogen action sites involved in prepubertal restraint of pulsatile luteinizing hormone release in female rats
The present study aimed to determine estrogen feedback action sites to mediate prepubertal restraint of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH)/luteinizing hormone (LH) release in female rats. Wistar-Imamichi strain rats were ovariectomized (OVX) and received a local estradiol-17β (estradiol) or cholesterol microimplant in several brain areas, such as the medial preoptic area (mPOA), paraventricu...
متن کاملCoexpression of gonadotropin inhibitory hormone with Agouti-related peptide in the neurons of arcuate nucleus of ewe hypothalamus
Introduction: Gonadotropin inhibitory hormone (GnIH) and Agouti-related peptide (AgRP) are orexigenic peptides expressed in the arcuate nucleus (Arc) of the hypothalamus in the ewe. In addition, effects of GnIH and AgRP on the regulation of gonadotropin releasing hormone secretion have been shown in some mammals. The objective of the present study was to investigate the coexpression of GnIH ...
متن کاملPulsatile or continuous infusion of luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone and hormonal concentrations in prepubertal beef heifers.
An experiment was conducted to determine if exogenous luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) administered iv intermittently as pulses (P) or by continuous sc infusion (I) using osmotic minipumps could sustain pulsatile LH release and induce estrous cyclicity in prepubertal heifers. Prepubertal heifers were assigned randomly to: 1) receive pulses of LHRH (n = 6; 2.5 micrograms LHRH/2 h for...
متن کاملPulsatile Luteinizing Hormone Secretion in Patients
The physiological and pathophysiological role of cortisol in pulsatile LH release was investigated in 14 patients (5 men, 6 premenopausal women, and 3 postmenopausal women) with Addison’s disease. The explicit effect of cortisol in relation to the effect of corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF), ACTH, and opioids was ensured by hypo-, normo-, and hypercortisolism. Hypocortisolism was obtained by...
