The lack of an effect of cholinergic agonists on anterior pituitary prolactin production in vitro
Abstract
The addition of dopamine to anterior pituitary incubations resulted in a marked decrease (88% for 3H prolactin and 69% for RIA prolactin) in prolactin release. Incubation with the cholinergic agonists carbacol, arecoline and nicotine resulted in no significant change in prolactin secretion.
