Model summarizing neurobiological mechanisms engaged by oestradiol to regulate GnRH neuron function. Low physiological levels of oestradiol (e) act upstream to alter GABAergic transmission to GnRH neurons. High physiological levels of oestradiol (E) can act directly via ERß and perhaps GPR30. Red font indicates inhibitory action, green font indicates stimulatory or excitatory action.
