Effects of leptin and the GnRH antagonist (cetrorelix) on the hypothalamic KiSS-1 gene expression. (A) Gene expression levels 2 hours after intracerebroventricular (ICV) injection. (B) Gene expression levels 4 hours after ICV injection. The KiSS-1 mRNA expression level significantly decreased in the leptin group and increased in the cetrorelix group. The KiSS-1 mRNA expression level decreased significantly in the cetrorelix+leptin group as compared with the cetrorelix and control groups. The values are the means±standard error. *P<0.01 versus the control group. **P<0.01 versus the cetrorelix group.
