Brief summary: Using a combination of expression studies in human embryos as well as functional studies in zebrafish and genetic sequencing of patient with congenital hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, this study identified a novel role for Jag1/Notch signaling in the development of GnRH neurons.GnRH neurons have a unique characteristic as they start life in the olfactory placode and then migrate into the hypothalamus during embryonic development, thanks to ...

Brief summary: This study identified a new role for GnRH in higher brain function using a rodent model of Down Syndrome. It reports for the first time an improvement of cognitive functions in patients with Down Syndrome treated with pulsatile GnRH.GnRH neurons are classically described as a population of neurons located in the hypothalamus and responsible for the activation and regulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis. However, the recent de...
