Luteinizing hormone releasing hormone (LHRH)-like immunoreactivity was observed in neurosecretory neurons at mesencephalic levels of the poecilid brain. This nucleus of peptide producing neurons has been shown to project to the spinal cord neurosecretory complex in this species. LHRH-like immunoreactivity was localized in fibers and terminals surrounding caudal neurosecretory cells. This investigation suggests that there is a mesencephalic descending LHRH innervation of caudal neurosecretory neurons.
在食蚊鱼脑的中脑水平的神经分泌神经元中观察到促黄体生成激素释放激素（LHRH）样免疫反应性。已证明该肽产生神经元核可投射到该物种的脊髓神经分泌复合体。LHRH样免疫反应性定位于尾侧神经分泌细胞周围的纤维和终末。这项研究表明，存在中脑对尾侧神经分泌神经元的LHRH下行神经支配。
