Thyrotropin Releasing Hormone Stimulation of Prolactin Release
Thyrotropin releasing hormone (TRH) and high extracellular K+ induce prolactin release from rat pituitary cells (GH3 cells) in culture. TRH, as well as high K' (SO m), was shown to increase 46Ca2' efflux from these cells. The effects of TRH and high K' on membrane polarization was determined indirectly using the lipophilic cation, triphenylmethyl phosphonium ion (TPMP'). The resting membran...
متن کاملThyrotropin-releasing Hormone Stimulation of Adrenocorticotropin Production
pituitary tumors in situ, AtT-20/NYU-1 cells were found to produce the alpha subunit of the glycoprotein hormones (alpha). Alpha accumulation in the medium was constant (3.1 ng/mg cell protein per h) and was not affected by TRH. In contrast, TRH increased the amount of ACTH accumulated in the medium from AtT-20/NYU-1 cells to 190 and 420% of control at 1 and 24 h, respectively. TRH induced a do...

متن کاملThe Therapeutic Effect of Thyrotropin Releasing Hormone in Amyotrophic Sclerosis
Although the issue has not yet been fully resolved, there is reason to believe that TRI-I may have a trophic effect on the normal motoneuron and may transien tly improve the neurologic deficit in ALS. Since ALS is not a simple TRI-I deficiency disease, this improvement probably occurs via a secondary mecha -nism-possibly another neurotransmitter. It is uncertain at this time whether this effec...
متن کاملCentral nervous system mediated stimulation by thyrotropin-releasing hormone of microcirculation in thyroid gland of rats.
The blood flow of thyroid, adrenal cortex and renal cortex in the pentobarbital anesthetized rat was assessed from hydrogen gas desaturation curve. The microcirculation of thyroid was markedly augmented within 2 min after an intraventricular injection of Thyrotropin-Releasing Hormone (TRH) while Met-Enkephalin (ENK) failed to influence. Both TRH and ENK stimulated the microcirculation of adrena...
