Kisspeptinergic and α-adrenergic systems provide independent activating influence on the cells of the arcuate hypothalamic nucleus of mature rats. Changes in status of the arcuate nucleus as a central element of the reproductive system, induced by the administration of antagonists and agonists of the α-adrenergic receptors, could be compensated by introduction of kisspeptin and its antagonist, respectively.
