Receptors for luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone. [PDF]
Antisera to luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LH-RH) confer on Araldite sections of occasional rat pituitaries moderate immunocytochemical staining to the large secretory granules of gonadotrophs. Treatment of the sections with LH-RH before anti-LH-RH yields strong staining in all animals, irrespective of presence or absence of staining without ...
