Background Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a complex endocrine disorder that is characterized by neuroendocrine dysfunction. While gonadotropin dysregulation is well established, the roles of neuropeptides, such as kisspeptin and neudesin, remain ...

The neuroendocrine control of reproduction in mammals is governed by a neural hypothalamic network of nearly 1500 gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) secreting neurons that modulate the activity of the reproductive axis across life.

Evolutionally Conserved Function of Kisspeptin Neuronal System Is Nonreproductive Regulation as Revealed by Nonmammalian Study [PDF]
The kisspeptin neuronal system, which consists of a neuropeptide kisspeptin and its receptor Gpr54, is considered in mammals a key factor of reproductive regulation, the so-called hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal (HPG) axis.

Congenital Hypogonadotropic Hypogonadism and Kallmann Syndrome: Past, Present, and Future [PDF]
The proper development and coordination of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis are essential for normal reproductive competence. The key factor that regulates the function of the HPG axis is gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH).

Afferent Neuronal Control of Type-I Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone Neurons in the Human. [PDF]
Understanding the regulation of the human menstrual cycle represents an important ultimate challenge of reproductive neuroendocrine research. However, direct translation of information from laboratory animal experiments to the human is often complicated ...

Central precocious puberty: From genetics to treatment [PDF]
Central precocious puberty (CPP) results from early activation of the hypothalamic - pituitary -gonadal (HPG) axis and follows the same sequence as normal puberty.

Weak evidence of bright light effects on human LH and FSH [PDF]
Background Most mammals are seasonal breeders whose gonads grow to anticipate reproduction in the spring and summer. As day length increases, secretion increases for two gonadotropins, luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH). This

Background: Since kisspeptin (KISS1) in the hypothalamus is affected by the inhibitory effect of dynorphin, it raises questions about the controlled balance of these 2 neuropeptides in women with and without polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).

Deficiency of Prdm13, a dorsomedial hypothalamus-enriched gene, mimics age-associated changes in sleep quality and adiposity [PDF]
The dorsomedial hypothalamus (DMH) controls a number of essential physiological responses. We have demonstrated that the DMH plays an important role in the regulation of mammalian aging and longevity.
