Successful reproduction in mammals requires the interaction of the reproductive and neuroendocrine systems. Nhlh2 is a basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor that is expressed in both the developing and adult neuroendocrine hypothalamus. Targeted deletion (N2KO) of Nhlh2 results in hypogonadism...
