Effects of Estrogen on Morphological and Electrophysiological Properties of Arcuate NKB Neurons

Infundibular (arcuate) neurokinin B (NKB) neurons play a critical role in neuroendocrine control of reproduction. Specifically, a local network of arcuate neurons that co-express kisspeptin, neurokinin B, and dynorphin (so-called, KNDy neurons), has emerged as a potential pacemaker driving the pulsa...
