Transcriptional expression of kiss2 and kiss1r in the zebrafish pituitary. (A) kiss2 and kiss1r mRNAs are examined by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). kiss2 mRNA is expressed in the female but not in the male pituitary. kiss1ra mRNA is not detected in the zebrafish pituitary. kiss1rb mRNA is expressed in both the female and male pituitary. (B) In situ hybridization analysis shows kiss1rb-positive signals in the proximal pars distalis (PPD) and pars intermedia (PI) in the female pituitary. (C) kiss1rb-positive signals are also detected in the male pituitary.
