Differential activation of neuropeptide FF receptors by gonadotropin-inhibitory hormone peptides in the European sea bass

Neuropeptide FF (NPFF) and gonadotropin-inhibitory hormone (GnIH) are thought to be paralogous, and a recent study has revealed that both NPFF and GnIH peptides can activate the GnIH receptor (GnIHR, also called NPFFR1) in the European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax).However, whether GnIH can bind to the NPFF receptor (NPFFR2) is still yet unknown
