Multiple Forms of GnRH Are Released from Perifused Medial Basal Hypothalamic/Preoptic Area (MBH/POA) Explants in Birds

Both chicken gonadotropin-releasing hormones I and II (cGnRH I and II) were detected in abundant quantity by radioimmunoassay of extracts of Japanese quail medial basal hypothalamic/preoptic area (MBH/POA) fragments that included the median eminence (ME) region. However, in radioimmunoassayed extrac...

Zusammenfassung:Both chicken gonadotropin-releasing hormones I and II (cGnRH I and II) were detected in abundant quantity by radioimmunoassay of extracts of Japanese quail medial basal hypothalamic/preoptic area (MBH/POA) fragments that included the median eminence (ME) region. However, in radioimmunoassayed extracts of Japanese quail ME alone, the concentration of cGnRH I greatly exceeded that of cGnRH II (≈450 pg/ME vs
