The effect of surgical isolation of the hypothalamus on its luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone content. 1976

M J Brownstein, and A Arimura, and A V Schally, and M Palkovits, and J S Kizer

The luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) content of the medical basal hypothalamus was determined by radioimmunoassay 10 days after the isolation of this region. Between 70 and 90% of the LHRH disappeared from the hypothalamus after the surgical procedure. Thus, it seems that most of the LHRH present in the medial basal hypothalamus arises from, or is controlled by, cells elsewhere in the brain.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007030 Hypothalamo-Hypophyseal System A collection of NEURONS, tracts of NERVE FIBERS, endocrine tissue, and blood vessels in the HYPOTHALAMUS and the PITUITARY GLAND. This hypothalamo-hypophyseal portal circulation provides the mechanism for hypothalamic neuroendocrine (HYPOTHALAMIC HORMONES) regulation of pituitary function and the release of various PITUITARY HORMONES into the systemic circulation to maintain HOMEOSTASIS.

D007031 Hypothalamus Ventral part of the DIENCEPHALON extending from the region of the OPTIC CHIASM to the caudal border of the MAMMILLARY BODIES and forming the inferior and lateral walls of the THIRD VENTRICLE.

D007987 Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone A decapeptide that stimulates the synthesis and secretion of both pituitary gonadotropins, LUTEINIZING HORMONE and FOLLICLE STIMULATING HORMONE. GnRH is produced by neurons in the septum PREOPTIC AREA of the HYPOTHALAMUS and released into the pituitary portal blood, leading to stimulation of GONADOTROPHS in the ANTERIOR PITUITARY GLAND.
