An increase in pulsatile release of LHRH is essential for the onset of puberty. However, the
mechanism controlling the pubertal increase in LHRH release is still unclear. In primates the …

The development of the neuroendocrine hypothalamus has been studied using a variety of
neuroanatomical and molecular techniques. Here, the major findings that mold our …

Histochemical mapping of AChE‐positive neuroblasts in sectioned and whole‐mounted
preparations of the chick embryo mesencephalon and prosencephalon allows a correlation …

The developmental patterns of neurofilament triplet proteins, peptide and amine
immunoreactivities were compared in motor (ventral spinal cord), sensory (dorsal spinal …

Besides the dopaminergic (DA-ergic) neurons possessing the whole set of enzymes of DA
synthesis from l-tyrosine and the DA membrane transporter (DAT), the neurons partly …

The origins of the dopamine (DA)‐containing nerve terminals in the external layer of the
median eminence and in the neurointermediate pituitary were determined in rats by a …

We have reported previously that prenatal bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) exposure at
the gestation window of vulnerability could consistently lead to dopamine (DA) neuron loss …

Hypothalamic neurons play a key role in homeostasis, yet little is known about their
differentiation. Here, we demonstrate that Shh and Bmp7 from the adjacent prechordal …

The ontogeny of rat diencephalic melanin‐concentrating hormone (MCH) neurons has been
analysed, using the bromodeoxyuridine method to determine the period of birth of these …

Spatiotemporal patterns of parvicellular neurosecretory neuron generation (birthdates) were
determined in the young adult male rat using a triple fluorescence labeling method. The six …
