Somatostatin inhibits release of thyrotropin releasing factor from organ cultures of rat hypothalamus

Somatostatin inhibits release of thyrotropin releasing factor from organ cultures of rat hypothalamus

Y Hirooka et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 1978 Sep.

Abstract

Somatostatin in concentrations of 10(-6) to 10(-8) M inhibited basal release of thyrotropin releasing factor in organ culture of rat hypothalamus. Norepinephrine in doses of 10(-4)--10(-6) M induced release of thyrotropin releasing factor which increased progressively with time and was temperature and dose dependent. This enhanced thyrotropin-releasing-factor release was inhibited by somatostatin at 10(-6)--10(-8) M.
