The paper investigates how estradiol and ovarian cycle stages affect functional connectivity between AVPV kisspeptin neurons and GnRH neurons in female mice using optogenetics and electrophysiology.

This study examines how voltage-gated calcium channel activity in GnRH neurons changes with age and prenatal androgen exposure in female mice, linking these changes to neuroendocrine features of PCOS.

This study investigates whether prenatal androgen treatment affects the firing activity of hypothalamic arcuate kisspeptin neurons in female mice, finding no significant differences in firing rates across age groups.

The paper investigates the role of GFAP-expressing astrocytes in regulating GnRH and KNDy neuron activity and LH release, finding that Gq signaling in the preoptic area increases LH release and GnRH firing.

This study investigates sex differences in GnRH neuron potassium currents and excitability under homeostatic feedback conditions, finding no significant differences between sexes.

This study uses CRISPR-Cas9 to disrupt ER in specific kisspeptin neuron populations in adult mice, revealing distinct roles of AVPV and arcuate kisspeptin neurons in estradiol-mediated negative and positive feedback on GnRH.
