1 | Refractoriness to a static melatonin signal develops in the pituitary gland for the control of prolactin secretion in the ram. | Melatonin | prolactin | Homo sapiens |
2 | Overall, the results support the conclusion that 1) melatonin acts primarily in the pituitary gland to affect prolactin secretion, and partial refractoriness develops at this level for control of prolactin; and 2) melatonin acts most probably in the hypothalamus to affect gonadotropin secretion, and refractoriness develops at the level of the neural tissue regulating GnRH release for control of gonadotropins. | Melatonin | prolactin | Homo sapiens |
