Role of serotonin in the regulation of ovulation. Evidence from pharmacological studies.

abstract：:Pulsatile gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) release from the median eminence is critical for the appropriate function of the pituitary gonadotropes and for the generation of a preovulatory gonadotropin surge. The mechanisms by which many GnRH axon terminals are synchronized to release GnRH in a coordinated fashion...

abstract：:Increases in the level of cAMP stimulate the secretion of GnRH from GT1 GnRH neuronal cells. We hypothesized that cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases (PDEs), the enzymes that hydrolyze cAMP, may constitute a negative feedback signaling mechanism for GnRH regulation by decreasing the level of cAMP. GT1 cells were show...
