A double-label electron microscopic immunostaining procedure was employed to examine the interconnections of glutamic acid decarboxylase(GAD)- and LHRH-immunoreactive neurons in the medial preoptic area of the rat. The results provide ultrastructural evidence that GABA-ergic neurons establish symmetric (Gray II) synapses on LHRH neurons.
