The role of KNDy neurons in human reproductive health by Aki Oride, Haruhiko Kanasaki

“…Kiss1 neurons in humans are concentrated in the infundibular nucleus (equivalent to the ARC), with few Kiss1 neurons localized to the preoptic area (equivalent to the AVPV), and the mechanisms underlying GnRH surge secretion in humans are poorly understood. However, peripheral administration of kisspeptin to humans promotes gonadotropin secretion, and administration of kisspeptin to patients with hypothalamic amenorrhea or congenital hypogonadotropic hypogonadism restores the pulsatile secretion of GnRH/luteinizing hormone. …”
