Central Injection of Substance P Antagonizes the RF Amide-Related Peptide-3 Impacts on Hypothalamic KISS-1 and GnRH Gene Expressions in Male Wistar Rats
Introduction: Gonadotropin-inhibitory hormone (GnIH) and its mammalian orthologue RF amide-related peptide (RFRP) are known to inhibit the secretion of gonadotropins. In addition, substance P (SP), a member of tachykinin’s family, can increase the firing rate of kisspeptin/ neurokinin B/dynorphin (K...
