     Interestingly, we found that brain galr1b mRNA levels showed signs of suppression by LL. These results together with this receptor’s androgen sensitivity in the testes of pre-pubertal fish [30 ] suggests a role in reproduction for the galinergic system acting in the brain and in peripheral tissues (i.e. testes).
