Evidence That Agouti-Related Peptide May Directly Regulate Kisspeptin Neurons in Male Sheep

Agouti-related peptide (AgRP) neurons, which relay information from peripheral metabolic signals, may constitute a key central regulator of reproduction. Given that AgRP inhibits luteinizing hormone (LH) secretion and that nutritional suppression of LH elicits an increase in AgRP while suppressing k...
