This resource explores essential illustrations and descriptions of the pituitary gland and gonadotropes as presented in "Principles of Neural Science" and "Fundamental Neuroscience". It includes anatomical depictions that detail the interaction between the pituitary gland, hypothalamus, and gonadal axis, highlighting the roles of GnRH neurons and gonadotropes. The content is aimed at students and professionals seeking a clearer understanding of neuroendocrine interactions in the context of brain-pituitary-target organ systems.
