title: [Effects of atropine sulfate on the hypothalamic LH-RH cells of the guinea-pig].
abstract: A single 30 mg/kg., s.c. injection of atropine sulfate into male guinea pigs produces a storage of LH-RH immunoreactive material in hypothalamic neurons. In diestrus female there is no increase of immunoreactive LH-RH substance in neuron and in eminential terminals; the rate of LH-RH synthesis may be still slight. The LH-RH immunoreactive neuronal increase, in male may be related to an atropine blockade of LH-RH portal cession, perhaps via infundibular dopaminergic neurons.
