Habenular Kiss1 Neurons Modulate the Serotonergic System in the Brain of Zebrafish
27 Mar 2012
Abstract excerpt
The Kiss1/KISS1 gene has recently been implicated as a potent hypothalamic regulator of reproductive functions, in particular, the onset of puberty in mammals. In zebrafish (Danio rerio), there are two kiss1 homologues (kiss1 and kiss2) expressed in the brain: Kiss2-expressing neurons in the hypothalamic nuclei are considered potent regulators of reproduction, whereas the role of Kiss1-expressing neurons in the...
