Relationship between rhythmic motor activity and plasma luteinizing hormone in ovariectomized sheep.

abstract：:Previous research has shown an increase in hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal axis activity following naloxone administration to morphine-dependent rats. In the present study, we investigated the adaptive changes in the noradrenaline (NA) and dopamine (DA) systems in the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) during mo...
