Improved visualization of luteinizing hormone releasing hormone pathways by immunocytochemical staining of thick vibratome sections.
Using 100-micron thick Vibratome sections and a modification of the peroxidase--antiperoxidase method of immunocytochemical staining we achieve a Golgi-like image of luteinizing hormone releasing hormone (LHRH) cells and fibers in mouse brain. Five LHRH pathways are described: 1) A dense projection of fibers from LHRH cells in the medial preoptic and septal areas to the wall of the third ventri...
متن کاملLocalization of luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) neurons that project to the median eminence.
The neuropeptide, luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH), is released from nerve terminals in the median eminence and carried via the hypophysial portal system to the anterior pituitary, where it stimulates the release of gonadotropins. LHRH-containing neurons are located in many different regions of the rodent brain, including olfactory, septal, preoptic, and hypothalamic structures. Sin...
متن کاملLuteinizing hormone-releasing hormone antagonists.
BACKGROUND Luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LH-RH) plays a central role in the vertebrate reproduction by regulating gonadal activity. Based on its binding to pituitary LH-RH receptors, as well as to LH-RH receptors expressed on cancer cells, LH-RH agonists and antagonists have been developed for different therapeutic applications. OBJECTIVE/METHOD Here we give an overview of the most r...
متن کاملSubstantial expression of luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) receptor type I in human uveal melanoma
Uveal melanoma is the most common primary intraocular malignancy in adults, with a very high mortality rate due to frequent liver metastases. Consequently, the therapy of uveal melanoma remains a major clinical challenge and new treatment approaches are needed. For improving diagnosis and designing a rational and effective therapy, it is essential to elucidate molecular characteristics of this ...
متن کاملSynthesis and Characterization of Luteinizing Hormone-Releasing Hormone (LHRH)-Functionalized Mini-Dendrimers
Luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) is the key regulator of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis, which is responsible for the development and functioning of the reproductive system. Delivery of a continuous supply of LHRH agonists causes down-regulation of the LHRH receptors, resulting in a marked decrease in androgens in males and estrogens in females. LHRH analogues are wid...
