Abstract
null null Introduction null Ejaculation is a complex reflex mediated by a spinal ejaculation generator located in the lumbosacral spinal cord and consisting of a population of lumbar spinothalamic (LSt) neurons. LSt neurons and their intraspinal axonal projections contain several neuropeptides, including gastrin‐releasing peptide (GRP). null null null Aim null To test the hypothesis that GRP is critically involved in mediating ejaculation by...
