Gonadotropin releasing hormone in the primitive vertebrate family Myxinidae: reproductive neuroanatomy and evolutionary aspects.

Journal Article 2013; 34(3): 177-183 PubMed PMID: 23685415 Keywords: Animals, Biological Evolution, Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone:physiology, Hagfishes:anatomy & histology, Neuroanatomy, Neurosecretory Systems:anatomy & histology, Reproduction:physiology,.

: The family Myxinidae embraces all hagfish species, and occupies an evolutionary niche intermediate between ancestral vertebrates and the gnathostomes (jawed vertebrates). Gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) modulates neuroendocrine activity in vertebrates and works in the context of the hypothalamic-pituitary (H-P) axis. The appeara.....
