GnRH drives an inflammatory process with concomitant SAT1 upregulation through ERK/PI3K signaling pathways in pituitary gonadotrope cells during the preovulatory surge
Pituitary gonadotrope cells are central regulators of reproduction through the secretion of gonadotropins under the control of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH). While the preovulatory surge of GnRH is known to trigger massive gonado...
