Prior to the age-related loss of regular estrous cycles, female rats exhibit an attenuated
preovulatory LH surge, a sign that reproductive decline is imminent. Numerous studies have …

It is essential for the species survival that an efficient coordination between energy storage
and reproduction through endocrine regulation. The neuropeptide galanin, one of the …

The distribution of galaninergic immunoreactive (‐ir) profiles was studied in the brain of
colchicine‐pretreated and non‐pretreated mice. Galanin (GAL)‐ir neurons and fibers were …

Galanin is widely distributed throughout the mammalian brain and has been implicated in
the regulation of food intake, metabolism and reproduction—functions that are also thought …

Galanin is a neuropeptide implicated in the regulation of feeding, reproduction, cognition,
nociception, and seizure susceptibility. There are three known galanin receptor (GALR) …

Galanin-like peptide (GALP) is a newly discovered hypothalamic neuropeptide, which is
regulated by leptin and implicated in the regulation of GnRH secretion in the rodent. We …

Pulsatile release of GnRH provides central control of reproduction. GnRH neuron activity is
likely synchronized to produce hormone pulses, but the mechanisms are largely unknown …

Prolactin (PRL)-releasing peptide (PrRP) is a novel hypothalamic peptide reported as a
potent and specific stimulator of PRL secretion. In this study, we examined a possible role of …

Galanin stimulates the neuroendocrine reproductive axis in the rat, but whether galanin acts
similarly in primate species is unknown. To test the hypothesis that galanin acts within the …

In rodents, the neuropeptide galanin (Gal) is involved in controlling the release of
gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH). In the female, this peptide is colocalized in a …
