Research Abstract |
Present study showed that long-chain fatty acids such as palmitate may directly activate long-chain fatty acid receptor, GPR120, and down-regulate the synthesis of gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptors on gonadotrophs of the mouse pituitary gland as signal molecules. Moreover, it became clear that GPR120 expression levels were controlled by estrogen on the pituitary gland.
