Under stressful condition, reproductive function is impaired due to the activation of various
components of the hypothalamic–pituitaryadrenal (HPA) axis, which can suppress the …

In humans, as in the other mammals, the neuroendocrine control of reproduction is ensured
by the brain-pituitary gonadotropic axis. Multiple internal and environmental cues are …

Animal behavior is, on the one hand, controlled by neuronal circuits that integrate external
sensory stimuli and induce appropriate motor responses. On the other hand, stimulus …

Gonadotropin-inhibitory hormone (GnIH) is a hypothalamic neuropeptide that was isolated
from the brains of Japanese quail in 2000, which inhibited luteinizing hormone release from …

The discovery of novel neurohormones is important for the advancement of
neuroendocrinology. In early 1970s, gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH), a …

Adiponectin is secreted by the adipose tissue and is downregulated in states of obesity and
insulin resistance. There is a growing body of evidence indicating that adiponectin has …

The discovery of gonadotropin-inhibitory hormone (GnIH) in 2000 has led to a new research
era of reproductive neuroendocrinology because, for a long time, researchers believed that …

Since the discovery of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) in mammals at the
beginning of the 1970s, it was generally accepted that GnRH is the only hypothalamic …

It is essential to discover novel neuropeptides that regulate the functions of pituitary, brain
and peripheral secretory glands for the progress of neuroendocrinology. Gonadotropin …

Abstract Neuropeptide FF (NPFF) and Neuropeptide VF (NPVF) are part of the extended
RFamide peptide family characterized by their common arginine (R) and amidated …
