| Research Abstract |
In this study, I demonstrated that the role of mTOR, which is well-known as a energy sensor of cells, and kisspeptin, is activated in downstream of mTOR, as a key modulator in the metabolic signaling and reproductive signaling. High-fat diet induced an increase of leptin level and decrease of mTOR activity and gonadotoropin secretion, whereas fasting also decreased gonadotoropin level and reproductive ability despite of leptin level was decreased.
