Definition of the hypothalamic GnRH pulse generator in mice
Open accessAbstract
Significance Neural networks located in the hypothalamus are responsible for generating ultradian patterns of hormone secretion that control a wide variety of functions. How these neural networks generate pulsatile hormone secretion remains unknown. We report here that a population of hypothalamic kisspeptin neurons represents the gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) pulse generator. These cells have the remarkable ability to generate synchronized GnRH secretion every 9 min to drive pulsatile gonadotropin hormone secretion in the blood. These observations indicate the arcuate kisspeptin neurons as the origin of reproductive hormone pulsatility in mice and offer the prospect of better understanding and manipulating fertility in the clinic.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
