previous studies have suggested that the stimulatory effect of neuropeptide y ( npy ) on the release of luteinizing hormone ( lh ) in rats may be due to a central action of the peptide that promotes the release of lh-releasing hormone ( lhrh ) from the hypothalamus , and to an action in the pituitary gland , to potentiate the release of lh induced by lhrh .
