An immunohistochemical study of the GnRH neuron morphology and topography in the adult female rabbit hypothalamus
Abstract
The morphology and distribution of immunoreactive (GnRH) neural elements in the hypothalamus of the adult nulliparous female rabbit were examined. Approximately 1,000 GnRH cells (range 890-1136) were counted in the right half of the hypothalamus. Two distinct GnRH cell types were observed: GnRH cells with rough or spiny contours accounted for 64% of the total immunoreactive cells, and smooth-contoured cells represented 34% of the total. The …
