Insulin‐induced hypoglycaemia suppresses pulsatile luteinising hormone secretion and arcuate Kiss1 cell activation in female mice

Stress suppresses pulsatile luteinising hormone (LH) secretion in a variety of species, although the mechanism underlying this inhibition of reproductive function remains unclear. Metabolic stress, particularly hypoglycaemia, is a clinically‐relevant stress type that is modelled with bolus insulin injection (insulin‐induced hypoglycaemia). The present study utilised ovariectomised C57BL/6 mice to test the hypothesis that acute hypoglycaemia...
