In-vivo analysis of hypothalamic kisspeptin neuron activity patterns
… controlled by two populations of hypothalamic kisspeptin neurons located in the arcuate nucleus (ARNKISS), known as the pulse generator, and in the rostral periventricular area of the third ventricle (RP3VKISS) operating as the surge generator. The pituitary gland responds to GnRH by releasing …

Progesterone Regulation of the GnRH Pulse Generator
Kisspeptin neurons in the arcuate nucleus (ARN) represent the gonadotrophin- releasing hormone (GnRH) pulse generator responsible for driving the pulsatile release of GnRH and luteinising hormone (LH) secretion. In a healthy menstruating woman, following the mid-cycle ovulation, progesterone (P4) …

The Role of Neurokinin B in the Regulation of the Preovulatory LH Surge in Ewes
… hormone (GnRH) is secreted by hypothalamic GnRH neurons into the hypophysial portal circulation. When GnRH reaches the anterior pituitary, it stimulates gonadotropes to secrete luteinizing hormone (LH) into the systemic circulation, ultimately leading to ovulation. GnRH/LH secretion occurs in two …

The role of progesterone receptor in hypothalamic kisspeptin neurons
In recent years, the neuropeptide kisspeptin, secreted by kisspeptin neurons, has been identified as the prime regulator of gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH). Kisspeptin neurons express steroid hormone receptors through which gonadal steroids exert both positive and negative feedback to the …

Uncovering the role of notch signaling in development of hypothalamic nuclei in vivo and using in vitro microenvironments
… are regulated by the collaborative efforts of neurons expressing well-defined neuropeptide content as well as other cellular subtypes of the brain such as glia, ependymal cells, and hypothalamic tanycytes. It is hypothesized that each of these cell types arise from a common progenitor early in …
