本研究表明，脑室内注射促黄体生成素释放激素（LHRH）激活性行为，提高血浆雄激素浓度在粗糙皮肤蝾螈（Taricha granulosa）。LHRH对雄性行为的刺激作用可能是一种季节性现象，因为LHRH对性行为的刺激仅在繁殖季节的早期（11月和12月）观察到。当一个活跃的LHRH拮抗剂注射到雄性蝾螈，性行为受到抑制。这些研究表明，内源性LHRH参与调节这种两栖动物的性行为。
The present study demonstrates that an intracerebroventricular injection of luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) activates sexual behaviors and elevates the plasma androgen concentrations in rough-skinned newts (Taricha granulosa). The stimulatory effect of LHRH on male behavior may be a seasonal phenomenon, because LHRH stimulation of sexual behavior was only observed during the early part of the breeding season (November and December). When an active LHRH antagonist was injected into male newts, sexual behavior was suppressed. These studies indicate that endogenous LHRH is involved in regulating sexual behavior in this amphibian.
