    Abstract:
    The topographical distribution of neurons containing LHRH has been investigated in newborn hypothalamus using the peroxidase anti-peroxidase technique. In control subjects, LHRH immunoreactive (LHRH-IR) perikarya have been mainly observed essentially in the infundibular nucleus. The preoptic region displayed a moderate density of LHRH-IR cell bodies. High LHRH innervation was observed in the anterior hypothalamus in the lamina terminalis and in the mediobasal hypothalamus in the median eminence, and in the peri- and paraventricular regions. In sudden death infant syndrome, a comparable mapping was observed, except a low density in the mediobasal peri- and paraventricular areas.
