1 | In female rats, NPY facilitation of LHRH release is greatly augmented in advance of preovulatory LHRH surges, likely via the actions of ovarian steroids. | Steroids | gonadotropin releasing hormone 1 | Rattus norvegicus |
2 | These results demonstrate that NPY stimulates LHRH release from the hypothalamus in vitro, and that gonadal steroids, in this case T and/or its metabolites, modulate the responsiveness of the LHRH neuron to NPY. | Steroids | gonadotropin releasing hormone 1 | Rattus norvegicus |
3 | Based on these data from intact and castrate-derived tissues, it appears that steroids are necessary to maintain LHRH responsiveness to NPY receptor stimulation. | Steroids | gonadotropin releasing hormone 1 | Rattus norvegicus |
