Abstract excerpt
GnRH neurons play a critical role in regulating gonadotropin secretion, but their scattered distribution has prevented detailed understanding of their molecular and cellular properties in vivo. Using GnRH promoter-driven transgenics we have examined here the role of 5'- and 3'-murine GnRH sequences in specifying GnRH expression in the adult mouse. Transgenic mice bearing a lacZ construct incorporating 5.5 kb of...
