objective: lc/na system is activator of hypothalamic–pituitar–adrenal (hpa) axis and cold stress triggers an equally robust increase in plasma na. increased lhrh content probably due to absence or decrease of ne release from the lc and positive feedback action of e2 on lh secretion show that in late proestrous phase na, lh and e2 have a strong link. this study was conducted to evaluate the effe...
