Journal ArticleDOI

GnRH-A Key Regulator of FSH.

TL;DR: The overarching goal of this review is to expand the understanding of the mechanisms and pathways underlying the carefully orchestrated control of FSH synthesis and secretion by GnRH, focusing on the transcriptional regulation of the Fshb gene.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tac1 Signaling Is Required for Sexual Maturation and Responsiveness of GnRH Neurons to Kisspeptin in the Male Mouse.

TL;DR: In this paper, the tachykinins substance P (SP) and neurokinin A (Tac1) have emerged as novel regulators of kisspeptin/GnRH release.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chromosomal Localization of the Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone Receptor Gene to Human Chromosome 4q13.1-q21.1 and Mouse Chromosome 5

TL;DR: The murine GRHR gene was localized to mouse chromosome 5, linked to the endogenous retroviral marker Pmv-11, consistent with evolutionary conservation of homology between these two regions, as has been previously suggested from comparative mapping of several other loci.
Journal ArticleDOI

RF9 Acts as a KISS1R Agonist In Vivo and In Vitro

TL;DR: This study demonstrates that RF9 acts primarily as a KISS1R agonist, but not as an allosteric modulator, to stimulate LH secretion, which raises questions regarding the utility of RF9 for assessing NPFF1R function and de-emphasize a predominant role of this signaling system in central regulation of reproduction.
