Kisspeptin (Kiss) and neurokinin B (NkB) expression within the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) and arcuate hypothalamic nucleus (ARC) in adult CD1 female mice. Kiss (red) and NkB (green) immunoreactivity in a coronal section of the PVN (A) and ARC (B) of the adult CD1 female mice in estrus phase. A dense Kiss expression is evident in both nuclei, with respect to the NkB signal: is clearly present only in ARC; in PVN the NkB signal is very low. The merge indicates that the Kiss and Nkb immunoreactivity co‐localize with the ARC nucleus.
