Molecular characterization and regulation of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) and its receptor mRNA in the human ovary
With the recent detection of GnRH and its receptor (GnRH-R) in numerous extrapituitary tissues, it is hypothesized that GnRH acts as an autocrine/paracrine regulator of ovarian function. The direct involvement of GnRH in follicular atresia and modulation of ovarian steroidogenesis, further substa...
