Journal ArticleDOI
Hypophysial responses to continuous and intermittent delivery of hypopthalamic gonadotropin-releasing hormone
TL;DR: The initiation of continuous GnRH administration in animals with lesions and in which gonadotropin secretion is reestablished by intermittent GnRH replacement can result in a "desensitization" or "down regulation" of the processes responsible for gonadotropic hormone release.
Book
Knobil and Neill's Physiology of reproduction
Tony M. Plant,Anthony J. Zeleznik,David F. Albertini,Robert L. Goodman,Allan E. Herbison,Margaret M. McCarthy,Louis J. Muglia,JoAnne S. Richards,Ernst Knobil,J. D. Neill +9 more
TL;DR: The aim of this book is to clarify the role of emotion, emotion, and language in the development of pregnancy and the role that these emotions play in the sexual activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Increased hypothalamic GPR54 signaling: a potential mechanism for initiation of puberty in primates.
Muhammad Shahab,Claudio A. Mastronardi,Stephanie B. Seminara,William F. Crowley,Sergio R. Ojeda,Tony M. Plant +5 more
TL;DR: Findings are consistent with the hypothesis that GPR54 signaling by its cognate ligand in the primate hypothalamus may be activated at the end of the juvenile phase of development and may contribute to the pubertal resurgence of pulsatile GnRH release, the central drive for puberty.
Journal ArticleDOI
Frequency and Amplitude of Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone Stimulation and Gonadotropin Secretion in the Rhesus Monkey
L. Wildt,A. Häusler,Gary R. Marshall,James S. Hutchison,Tony M. Plant,P. E. Belchetz,Ernst Knobil +6 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that changes in the frequency or amplitude of hypophysiotropic stimulation have profound effects on plasma gonadotropin levels as well as on FSH to LH ratios in the circulation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Control of the rhesus monkey menstrual cycle: permissive role of hypothalamic gonadotropin-releasing hormone
TL;DR: In rhesus monkeys with hypothalamic lesions, normal ovulatory mestrual cycles were reestablished by an unvarying, long-term replacement regimen consisting of one intravenous pulse of synthetic gonadotropic-releasing hormone per hour.
