Abstract excerpt
Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) peptides in the brain, testis and plasma of an electric ray (Torpedo marmorata) were investigated by gel filtration chromatography, reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography and radioimmunoassay with region-specific antisera. In the brain, two majo...
