Undernutrition reduces kisspeptin and neurokinin B expression in castrated male sheep [PDF]
Summary Undernutrition impairs reproductive success through suppression of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH), and subsequently luteinizing hormone (LH), secretion.

Kisspeptin and neurokinin B interactions in modulating gonadotropin secretion in women with polycystic ovary syndrome [PDF]
STUDY QUESTION What is the role of the hypothalamic neuropeptide neurokinin B (NKB) and its interaction with kisspeptin on GnRH/LH secretion in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)? SUMMARY ANSWER Administration of neurokinin 3 receptor antagonist

Morphological evidence for enhanced kisspeptin and neurokinin B signaling in the infundibular nucleus of the aging man. [PDF]
Peptidergic neurons synthesizing kisspeptin (KP) and neurokinin B (NKB) in the hypothalamic infundibular nucleus have been implicated in negative sex steroid feedback to GnRH neurons. In laboratory rodents, testosterone decreases KP and NKB expression in

Effect of neurokinin B and dynorphin A on kisspeptin-10 secretion from the anterior pituitary cells of pubescent ewes in vitro [PDF]
Neurokinin B (NKB), dynorphin A (Dyn A) and kisspeptin (KiSS) are key agents that participate in the neuroendocrine regulation of the development and functioning of the reproductive system.

A New Hope for Woman with Vasomotor Symptoms: Neurokinin B Antagonists [PDF]
KNDy (kisspeptine, neurokinin B, dynorphin) neurons, located in the hypothalamus, play a crucial role in the development of vasomotor symptoms (VSM) in menopausal women.

Investigating the KNDy hypothesis in humans by co-administration of kisspeptin, neurokinin B and naltrexone in men [PDF]
Context: A subpopulation of hypothalamic neurons co-localise three neuropeptides namely kisspeptin, neurokinin B (NKB) and dynorphin collectively termed KNDy neurons. Animal studies suggest they interact to affect pulsatile GnRH release (KNDy hypothesis);

CONTEXT Kisspeptin-Neurokinin B-Dynorphin neurons are critical regulators of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis. Neurokinin B (NKB) and dynorphin are hypothesized to influence the frequency of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) pulses; whereas ...
