Recovery of ovarian function in infertile mammals lacking gonadotropin release
E-Mail IMAGE: This study has found that KNDy neurons are key to controlling ovarian function in mammals. These neurons express signalling molecules (peptides) in the brain that stimulate pulses of a hormone... view more Credit: Sho Nakamura Gonadotropins are any hormones that are released from the anterior pituitary to stimulate the gonads, or sex glands, to carry out their reproductive functions.
