Kisspeptin, Neurokinin B, and Dynorphin Expression during Pubertal Development in Female Sheep

Kisspeptin, Neurokinin B, and Dynorphin Expression during Pubertal Development in Female Sheep

The neural mechanisms underlying increases in gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) secretion that drive puberty onset are unknown. Neurons coexpressing kisspeptin, neurokinin B (NKB), and dynorphin, i.e., KNDy neurons, are important as kisspeptin and NKB are stimulatory...
