Secretory Patterns of Leptin and Luteinizing Hormone in Food-Restricted Young Female Sheep

Secretory Patterns of Leptin and Luteinizing Hormone in Food-Restricted Young Female Sheep

Leptin, the product of the ob gene, has been proposed as a metabolic signal that regulates the secretion of GnRH/LH. This may be critical during prepubertal development to synchronize information about energy stores and the secretion of GnRH/LH. This study aimed to assess the effect of food restrict...
