Activity of noradrenergic neurons of medial-basal hypothalamus of female rabbits in some stages of reproduction.
Activity of noradrenergic neurons of medial-basal hypothalamus of female rabbits in some stages of reproduction. Acta Physiol. Pol., 1978, 29 (2): 111--115. The differences were found in the activity of noradrenergic neurons of medial-basal hypothalmus (MBH) estimated by the analysis of metabolism of intraventricularly infused 3H-noradrenaline (3H-NA) in various stages of reproduction in female rabbits. The gonadal hormones and especially 17beta-estradiol seem to be involved in this activity. The rapid disappearance of 3H-NA from MBH, found immediately after mating, implicates an involvement of noradrenaline in the process of Gn-RHs release form the rabbit hypothalamus.
