摘要：
In mammals LHRH (luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone) is synthesized and released by a set of neurons that have their embryonic origin in the olfactory placode. We have observed that, besides their classical location, LHRH fibers can also be seen in the optic nerve and optic chiasm. Some LHRH fibers could also be traced in the optic tract. The possible course of these projections, and their functional significance are discussed.
