Recent advances in reproductive neuroendocrinology: a role for RFamide peptides in seasonal reproduction?
Most temperate-zone species use photoperiod to coordinate breeding and ensure that offspring are born during favourable conditions. Although photoperiodic influences on the reproductive axis have been well characterized, the precise mechanisms by which photoperiodic information and other seasonal cues are integrated to regulate reproductive function remain less well specified. Two recently disc...
متن کاملNeuroendocrine control of photoperiodic changes in immune function.
Seasonal variation in immune function putatively maximizes survival and reproductive success. Day length (photoperiod) is the most potent signal for time of year. Animals typically organize breeding, growth, and behavior to adapt to spatial and temporal niches. Outside the tropics individuals monitor photoperiod to support adaptations favoring survival and reproductive success. Changes in day l...
متن کاملContribution of GnIH Research to the Progress of Reproductive Neuroendocrinology
Since the discovery of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) in mammals at the beginning of the 1970s, it was generally accepted that GnRH is the only hypothalamic neuropeptide regulating gonadotropin release in mammals and other vertebrates. In 2000, however, gonadotropin-inhibitory hormone (GnIH), a novel hypothalamic neuropeptide that actively inhibits gonadotropin release, was discovered in...
متن کاملNeuroendocrine regulation of gonadotropins in the male and the female.
For the past decade, neuroendocrinology, in general, and neuroendocrine regulation of reproduction, in particular, were strongly dominated by molecular genetics and molecular endocrinology. In very recent years, however, neuroendocrinology is taking back its place. Beyond doubt GnRH is the neuroendocrine signal for ovulation. But there are still many unexplored pathways within the 'black box' t...
متن کاملCircadian Tick‐Talking Across the Neuroendocrine System and Suprachiasmatic Nuclei Circuits: The Enigmatic Communication Between the Molecular and Electrical Membrane Clocks
As with many processes in nature, appropriate timing in biological systems is of paramount importance. In the neuroendocrine system, the efficacy of hormonal influence on major bodily functions, such as reproduction, metabolism and growth, relies on timely communication within and across many of the brain's homeostatic systems. The activity of these circuits is tightly orchestrated with the ani...
