Neural pathway from the olfactory bulbs regulating tonic gonadotropin secretion.

Removal of the olfactory bulbs of male golden hamsters results in a marked increase in tonic gonadotropin, prolactin and testosterone secretion which counteracts inhibitory effects of manipulations such as maintenance on short photoperiod, food restriction or treatment with gonadal steroids. The bulbectomy-induced increase in hormone secretion is interpreted to reflect a tonic inhibitory influence of the olfactory bulbs. This inhibition is not dependent upon chemosensory stimulation and may be mediated by olfactory bulb fibers projecting through the lateral olfactory tract to or through the olfactory tubercle. This review will relate these studies conducted on hamsters to results in other species, such as the rat, where the olfactory bulbs enhance serum gonadotropin levels.[1]
