Luteinizing Hormone-Releasing Hormone (LHRH) Neurons Maintained in Hypothalamic Slice Explant Cultures Exhibit a Rapid LHRH mRNA Turnover Rate

Evidence indicates that neuropeptide gene expression is tightly coupled to biosynthesis and secretion. Moreover, rhythmic gene expression often accompanies rhythmic secretion. Luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) neurosecretion, which regulates gonadal function, is pulsatile, with interpulse...

Description
Summary:Evidence indicates that neuropeptide gene expression is tightly coupled to biosynthesis and secretion. Moreover, rhythmic gene expression often accompanies rhythmic secretion. Luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) neurosecretion, which regulates gonadal function, is pulsatile, with interpulse intervals of approximately 1 hr and pulse decays of
