  • The study investigates the interaction between the endocannabinoid system (ECS) and the kisspeptin system (KS) in controlling male reproduction through the hypothalamus-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis in adolescent male rats.
  • Male rats were administered kisspeptin-10 and anandamide, with assessments made on hormone levels, gene expression, and localization of specific neurons to explore the effects of these treatments.
  • The results showed that kisspeptin-10 influenced the expression of proteins related to KS, while anandamide had distinct effects on both KS and ECS, highlighting their complex interaction and influence on reproductive development.
