Abstract
Electrical stimulation of the vomeronasal organ in male hamsters activated Fos expression in neurons of the chemosensory pathways, as in experiments where animals were stimulated with female chemical stimuli. Fos was also activated in gonadotropin hormone releasing hormone (GnRH, or LHRH) neurons in the rostral medial preoptic region of the brain, a possible substrate for GnRH influence on chemosensory-dependent reproductive behavior.
摘要
对雄性仓鼠犁鼻器进行电刺激，可激活化学感受通路神经元中的Fos表达，这与用雌性化学刺激物刺激动物的实验情况相同。Fos在脑内视前区前部的促性腺激素释放激素（GnRH，或LHRH）神经元中也被激活，这可能是GnRH影响化学感受依赖性生殖行为的一个潜在基础。
