Journal ArticleDOI

A novel avian hypothalamic peptide inhibiting gonadotropin release.

TL;DR: It is shown, in a bird, that the hypothalamus also contains a novel peptide which inhibits gonadotropin release, the first hypothalamic peptide inhibiting gonadotropic hormone reported in a vertebrate.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification and characterization of a gonadotropin-inhibitory system in the brains of mammals

TL;DR: The distribution of GnIH efferents to neural sites regulating reproductive behavior and neuroendocrine secretions, expression of steroid receptors in GnIh-ir nuclei, and GnI H inhibition of luteinizing hormone secretion indicate the discovery of a system regulating the mammalian reproductive axis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rat RFamide-related peptide-3 stimulates GH secretion, inhibits LH secretion, and has variable effects on sex behavior in the adult male rat

TL;DR: Results indicate that although RFRP-3 has similar effects on LH as observed with GnIH in avian species, in the rat RFRPs has additional roles in regulating feeding and growth.
Journal ArticleDOI

Salt-sensitive hypertension in circadian clock-deficient Cry-null mice involves dysregulated adrenal Hsd3b6.

TL;DR: Type VI 3β-hydroxyl-steroid dehydrogenase (Hsd3b6) is identified as a new hypertension risk factor in mice and placed in a pivotal position through which circadian clock malfunction is coupled to the development of hypertension.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neurosteroid biosynthesis: enzymatic pathways and neuroendocrine regulation by neurotransmitters and neuropeptides.

TL;DR: The observation that the activity of key steroidogenic enzymes is finely tuned by various neurotransmitters and neuropeptides strongly suggests that some of the central effects of these neuromodulators may be mediated via the regulation of neurosteroid production.
