Abstract
this is the first time that primary cell cultures from human fetal olfactory neuroepithelium have been shown to express and release GnRH. Our results also demonstrate that these cultures, which are sensitive to sex steroids and odorants, can be useful models in the study of the complex array of regulatory factors that finely tune GnRH secretion in humans.I documenti in FLORE sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
