Melatonin Induces the Expression of Gonadotropin-Inhibitory Hormone in the Avian Brain

We recently identified a novel hypothalamic neuropeptide inhibiting gonadotropin release in quail and termed it gonadotropin-inhibitory hormone (GnIH). Cell bodies and terminals containing the dodecapeptide GnIH are localized in the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) and median eminence, respectively. To...
