Chronic diphenylhydantoin (DPH) administration (5 mg x 100 g body wt-1 x day-1) to the normal rat is associated with a decrease in the serum thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3) concentrations without an appropriate rise in the serum thyrotropin (TSH) concentration, suggesting a possible direct effect of DPH on TSH secretion. To further study this possibility, DPH was administered chronically to thyroidectomized, hypothyroid rats. In the hypothyroid rats treated chronically with DPH, serum TSH did not increase, pituitary TSH content was significantly decreased, and the serum TSH response to thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) was decreased compared to that of diluent-treated, hypothyroid rats. Hypothalamic TRH content was similar in DPH and diluent-treated rats. These findings suggest that DPH suppresses pituitary TSH secretion, probably as a thyroid hormone agonist. The effect of a single large dose of DPH (20 mg/100 g body wt) administered to thyroidectomized rats also decreased serum tSH but, in contrast to the findings in chronically treated rats, hypothalamic TRH and pituitary TSH content and the serum TSH responses to TRH were increased. These differences may be due to the acute inhibitory effect of a large dose of DPH on hypothalamic TRH release. Furthermore, because the effect of thyroid hormone on regulating pituitary TSH synthesis and release is dose and time dependent, the effect of DPH as a thyroid hormone agonist on pituitary TSH dynamics may also be variable. 相似文献

Thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) or thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) was measured by radioimmunoassay in the incubation medium of rat hypothalami or anterior pituitary halves, respectively. We studied the effect of opioid peptide addition (10(-8) to 10(-6) M) on TRH or TSH release. alpha- or beta-Endorphin decreased TRH release in a dose-dependent manner while only 10(-6) M Leu- or Met-enkephalin decreased TRH release. These inhibitory effects were prevented by addition of naloxone (10(-5) M). In the dose range used none of the opioid peptides modified TSH release. These results indicate that opioid peptides may play a role in the regulation of thyrotropin secretion via a hypothalamic action on TRH release. 相似文献

We examined in the rat several possible relationships between the pineal gland and the hypothalamus-pituitary-thyroid axis. The pineal gland, the retina, and the hypothalamus exhibited a diurnal rhythm in thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) content with peak values occurring around 1200 h. This rhythm in the hypothalamus was abolished by constant light but was not affected by pinealectomy. Nor did pinealectomy affect hypothalamic TRH content, pituitary content of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) or prolactin; serum levels of (TSH), triiodothyronine (T3), or thyroxine (T4), or serum free-thyroxine index; or free-triiodothyronine index. Melatonin did not affect TSH or prolactin release from the anterior pituitary or TRH release from the hypothalamus in vitro. Isoproterenol did not affect the TRH content of pineal glands in vitro; nor did TRH or T3 affect basal or stimulated activities of serotonin N-acetyltransferase, the presumed controlling enzyme in melatonin production. We found no evidence for significant interactions between the pineal gland and the hypothalamus-pituitary-thyroid axis. 相似文献

Biochemical similarity of rat pituitary and CNS TRH receptors 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Chemical properties of receptor binding sites for thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) in rat pituitary, retina, amygdala and hypothalamus were compared by examining the influence of sulfhydryl reagents on specific binding of [3H](3-Me-His2)-TRH ([3H]MeTRH). Dithiothreitol-induced reduction of disulfide bonds, alkylation of thiol residues by N-ethylmaleimide and their oxidation by 5,5-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoic acid) (DTNB), all produced marked reduction of [3H]MeTRH binding, which could be prevented in part by preincubation with exogenous TRH. In all tissues, concentration-dependent loss of binding activity was observed following exposure to micromolar heavy metals and mono- and divalent cations, with apparent additive effects between cations and DTT and NEM. Most changes appeared to reflect only a decrease in receptor density (Bmax). The similar sensitivity of all tissues to these compounds complements existing evidence for a close resemblance of TRH receptors in the CNS and pituitary. 相似文献

Daily administration of estradiol benzoate (10 microgram/100 g body wt) to intact male rats led to a twofold increase of the plasma TSH (thyroid-stimulating hormone) response to thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) after 4 and 7 days of treatment whereas the basal plasma TSH level was not affected. The basal plasma PRL concentration and the PRL response to TRH were both markedly increased by estrogen treatment. The TSH pituitary content remained unchanged, whereas the PRL pituitary content increased in parallel with the effect on PRL secretion. Treatment with estrogens for 1 wk sensitized the TSH secretory response to low doses of TRH (10 ng), whereas no significant effect on the response was found at high doses of the neurohormone. The present data show that the stimulatory effect of estrogens on the TSH response to TRH is due to true sensitization of the thyrotrophs to the action of the neurohormone, whereas that on prolactin secretion can result partly from increased pituitary prolactin content. 相似文献

Effects of synthetic thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) and various doses of thyroxin (T4) on prolactin (PRL)-producing cells and thyrotropic cells in the pituitary were investigated in adult male and female Rana ridibunda frogs. Animals were given 200 microg TRH once a week for 4 weeks and 0.2-0.5 mg T4 during 3 days per week for a period of 2 weeks by injections in the groin. PRL-producing cells and thyrotropic cells were identified with light microscopical and electron microscopical immunocytochemical methods, using rabbit anti-PRL and rabbit anti-thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) as primary antibodies. TRH caused cytological changes in both cell types, which were consistent with increased synthesis and release of both PRL and TSH. Treatment with 0.5 mg T4 activated both cell types less than TRH treatment did, whereas 0.2 and 0.4 mg T4 caused inactivation of both cell types. In conclusion, mammalian TRH is effective on both types of frog pituitary cells. Our study suggests that T4 has a positive rather than a negative effect when concentrations above a certain threshold are given. 相似文献

The effects of okadaic acid, a non-phorbol-12-tetradecanoate-13-acetate (non-TPA)-type tumor promoter and a potent inhibitor of protein phosphatases, on thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) secretion from the rat anterior pituitary were examined. Preincubation of anterior pituitaries with okadaic acid caused a time- and concentration-related decrease in a subsequent thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH)-stimulated TSH secretion, whereas it did not cause any changes in basal secretion of TSH. In addition, okadaic acid inhibited a subsequent high K(+)-induced TSH secretion. In contrast, ionomycin-induced TSH secretion was not inhibited by pretreatment with okadaic acid. The present results suggest that okadaic acid may block the release of TSH by inhibition of Ca2+ influx through voltage-sensitive and/or receptor-operated Ca2+ channels. 相似文献

Five adenohypophyses from donors of the same strain, age, and sex were transplanted under the renal capsule of young adult female rats. At least 3 wk later, enzymatically dispersed cells from eutopic or heterotopic adenohypophyses from the same rat were perifused in vitro in a small chamber. Thyrotropin (TSH) and prolactin (PRL) secretion per 10(6) cells were significantly less from heterotopic than from eutopic cells under all conditions. In cells from euthyroid animals, TRH induced TSH secretion only in the eutopic cells but induced PRL secretion in both eutopic and heterotopic cells. Hypothyroidism increased TRH-induced TSH secretion and content in the cell lysate in both eutopic and heterotopic cells but increased TRH-induced PRL secretion only in the eutopic cells. The increase in TSH secretion induced by hypothyroidism in the heterotopic cells was of borderline statistical significance. The inability of TRH to induce TSH secretion in heterotopic pituitary cells from euthyroid rats may be due to a lower set point for thyroid hormone inhibition of TSH secretion in the heterotopic thyrotrophs. Heterotopic pituitary TSH secretion is probably suppressed by the normal plasma thyroid hormone concentration maintained by the eutopic pituitary and may be stimulated by TRH only in the presence of a subnormal plasma thyroid hormone concentration. 相似文献

In order to elucidate the specific thyrotropic area in the hypothalamus, thyrotropin releasing hormone (TRH) content and concentration were measured in discrete hypothalamic nuclei and areas after triiodothyronine (T3) administration (T3 10 micrograms/rat/day for 6 days), thyroidectomy (TX) and acute cold exposure in male rats. In th TX and T3 groups, serum TSH levels were significantly increased in TX group and markedly decreased in T3 and TX with T3 groups as compared to the sham operated control group (Sham). TX produced a slight but nonsignificant decrease in TRH content in most of the hypothalamic nuclei examined as compared with the Sham group. However, a significant increase in TRH contents was seen in the anterior hypothalamic nucleus (AHN), median eminence (ME) and posterior pituitary (PP) in TX with T3 group as compared to the rats with only TX. In the acute cold stress experiments, serum TSH levels were elevated from 15 to 30 min of 4 degrees C exposure. Together with these peripheral changes, TRH content and concentration in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SC) were increased significantly at 15 min and had returned to the normal level by 30 min after 4 degrees C cold exposure. However, in the paraventricular nucleus (PV) and dorsal premammillary nucleus (PMD), marked decrease in TRH concentrations were observed with this stress. Therefore, 1) decreased TSH release in TX rats treated with T3 was induced by the block of TRH release from the AHN and ME as compared with the TX group, and 2) elevated serum TSH levels in 4 degrees C cold stress might be induced by the release of TRH from the PMD and PV. These experiments demonstrate that the specific hypothalamic area for TSH release was located in some of the anterior and posterior hypothalamic nuclei and in the ME. 相似文献

Thyrotropin-released hormone (TRH) stimulation of thyrotropin (TSH) release from mouse thyrotropic tumor (TtT) cells is dependent on Ca2+. We demonstrate that TRH action in TtT cells does not require extracellular Ca2+ but that Ca2+ influx induced by TRH can augment TSH secretion. TRH caused a 46% increase in 45Ca2+ uptake by TtT cells in medium with 100 micro M Ca2+. The increment in 45Ca2+ uptake caused by TRH was dependent on the concentration of Ca2+ in the medium. In contrast to the effect of 50 mM K+, which also causes Ca2+ influx, TRH caused 45Ca2+ efflux and TSH release from TtT cells even when the concentration of Ca2+ in the medium was lowered below 100 micro M. TRH stimulated TSH release during perifusion in medium in which the free Ca2+ concentration was lowered to approximately 0.02 micro M, and reintroduction of Ca2+ into the medium simultaneously with TRH markedly increased TSH release. We suggest that TRH may affect Ca2+ metabolism in TtT cells by both extracellular Ca2+-independent and -dependent mechanisms and that this dual mechanism of action serves to augment further TSH secretion induced by TRH. 相似文献

Six groups of thyroid glands from 18-day fetal rats were explanted to organ culture for 2 days. In one group, thyroid was cultured alone and in the remaining five groups thyroid was cocultured with pituitaries from fetuses ranging in age from 17 to 21 days. In each of the groups, half of the cultures had thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) added to the medium. Histometric parameters of the thyroid follicle such as diameter and cell height were used as indicators of development of the thyroid gland. When 18-day thyroid was cultured alone, addition of TRH did not accelerate development. When either one 18-day or two 17-day pituitaries were cocultured with thyroid, a significant increase in diameter and cell height was seen. Addition of TRH to the medium induced little or no further change. When the thyroid was cultured with 19- to 21-day pituitaries, a marked increase in thyroid development was observed; and the addition of TRH caused further acceleration in thyroid development. These results suggest that, in organ culture, 17- to 18-day pituitary glands can release some thyrotropin (TSH) with or without additional TRH. Older pituitaries (19- to 21-day) apparently can release an amount of TSH in the presence of TRH that is greater than their own spontaneous TSH secretion. 相似文献

Glp-Asn-Pro-D-Tyr-D-TrpNH(2) is a novel synthetic peptide that mimics and amplifies central actions of thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) in rat without releasing TSH. The aim of this study was to compare the binding properties of this pentapeptide and its all-L counterpart (Glp-Asn-Pro-Tyr-TrpNH(2)) to TRH receptors in native rat brain tissue and cells expressing the two TRH receptor subtypes identified in rat to date, namely TRHR1 and TRHR2. Radioligand binding studies were carried out using [(3)H][3-Me-His(2)]TRH to label receptors in hippocampal, cortical and pituitary tissue, GH4 pituitary cells, as well as CHO cells expressing TRHR1 and/or TRHR2. In situ hybridization studies suggest that cortex expresses primarily TRHR2 mRNA, hippocampus primarily TRHR1 mRNA and pituitary exclusively TRHR1 mRNA. Competition experiments showed [3-Me-His(2)]TRH potently displaced [(3)H][3-Me-His(2)]TRH binding from all tissues/cells investigated. Glp-Asn-Pro-D-Tyr-D-TrpNH(2) in concentrations up to 10(-5)M did not displace [(3)H][3-Me-His(2)]TRH binding to membranes derived from GH4 cells or CHO-TRHR1 cells, consistent with its lack of binding to pituitary membranes and TSH-releasing activity. Similar results were obtained for the corresponding all-L peptide. In contrast, both pentapeptides displaced binding from rat hippocampal membranes (pIC(50) Glp-Asn-Pro-D-Tyr-D-TrpNH(2): 7.7+/-0.2; pIC(50) Glp-Asn-Pro-Tyr-TrpNH(2): 6.6+/-0.2), analogous to cortical membranes (pIC(50) Glp-Asn-Pro-D-Tyr-D-TrpNH(2): 7.8+/-0.2; pIC(50) Glp-Asn-Pro-Tyr-TrpNH(2): 6.6+/-0.2). Neither peptide, however, displaced [(3)H][3-Me-His(2)]TRH binding to CHO-TRHR2. Thus, this study reveals for the first time significant differences in the binding properties of native and heterologously expressed TRH receptors. Also, the results raise the possibility that Glp-Asn-Pro-D-Tyr-D-TrpNH(2) is not displacing [(3)H][3-Me-His(2)]TRH from a known TRH receptor in rat cortex, but rather a hitherto unidentified TRH receptor. 相似文献

Summary Anterior pituitary function was investigated in ten healthy subjects by administering a combination of 200 µg thyrotropin releasing hormone (TRH), 100 µg gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH), 100 µg growth hormone releasing factor (GRF1–44), and 100 µg human corticotropin releasing factor (CRF). The same test protocol was performed in all subjects after pretreatment with 0.25 mg terguride. Five subjects were tested only with TRH and GnRH, five only with CRF, and six only with GRF. There was a prompt increase in all hormones after the administration of the four releasing hormones (RH). Pretreatment with terguride lowered the prolactin (PRL) increase (p<0.01) as well as the thyrotropin (TSH) peak (p<0.05) compared with the test without dopamine agonist pretreatment. The PRL levels after combined RH administration were significantly higher than after TRH and GnRH alone. Although four of the five subjects had higher TSH levels after combined RH administration than after TRH and GnRH alone, the difference was not significant. Other hormones were not significantly influenced by the combined RH administration or dopamine agonist pretreatment. Despite the fact that the interaction of the different releasing hormones and dopamine agonists influences the pituitary hormone response, combined RH administration seems to be a useful test for evaluating pituitary function also in patients receiving dopamine agonist therapy.Abbreviations ACTH

Primary hypothyroidism causes adenohypophysial hyperplasia via stimulation by hypothalamic thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH). The effect was long thought to simply result in thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and prolactin (PRL) cell hyperplasia, an increase in TSH and PRL blood levels with resultant pituitary enlargement, often mimicking adenoma. Recently, it was shown that transformation of growth hormone (GH) cells into TSH cells takes place in both clinical and experimental primary hypothyroidism. Such shifts from one cell to another with a concomitant change in hormone production are termed "transdifferentiation" and involve the gradual acquisition of morphologic features of thyrotrophs ("somatothyrotrophs"). We recently encountered a unique case of pituitary hyperplasia in a 40-year-old female with primary hypothyroidism wherein increased TSH production was by way of PRL cell recruitment. The resultant "lactothyrotrophs" maintained TSH cell morphology (cellular elongation and prominence of PAS-positive lysosomes) but expressed immunoreactivity for both hormones. No co-expression of GH was noted nor was thyroidectomy cells seen. This form of transdifferentiation has not previously been described. 相似文献

It is unclear whether hypothyroidism is present in patients with Prader–Willi syndrome (PWS). This study aimed to clarify the state of the hypothalamic–pituitary–thyroid axis and the effects of growth hormone (GH) treatment on thyroid function in pediatric patients with PWS. We retrospectively evaluated thyroid function in 51 patients with PWS before GH treatment using a thyroid‐releasing hormone (TRH) stimulation test (29 males and 22 females; median age, 22 months). We also evaluated the effect of GH therapy on thyroid function by comparing serum free triiodothyronine (fT3), free thyroxine (fT4), and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) levels at baseline, 1 year, and 2 years after GH therapy. TSH, fT4, and fT3 levels were 2.28 μU/ml (interquartile range [IQR]; 1.19–3.61), 1.18 ng/dl (IQR; 1.02–1.24), and 4.02 pg/dl (IQR; 3.54–4.40) at baseline, respectively. In 49 of 51 patients, the TSH response to TRH administration showed a physiologically normal pattern; in two patients (4.0%), the pattern suggested hypothalamic hypothyroidism (delayed and prolonged TSH peak after TRH administration). TSH, fT4, and fT3 levels did not change significantly during 1 or 2 years after GH treatment. The TSH response to TRH showed a normal pattern in most patients, and thyroid function did not change significantly during the 2 years after initiating GH treatment. 相似文献

Our early pioneering clinical trials in Mexico with natural and synthetic thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) and luteinizing hormone releasing hormone (LH-RH) also known as gonadotropin releasing hormone (Gn-RH), were reviewed. Highly purified TRH of porcine origin was shown to stimulate Thyrotropin (TSH) release in hypothyroid cretins. Subsequent tests with synthetic TRH also demonstrated significant increases in plasma TSH in normal men and women as well as in patients with primary hypothyroidism and other endocrine disorders. Even more extensive clinical studies were carried out with highly purified natural porcine LH-RH. Subjects with normal basal serum levels of gonadotropins, low levels (men and women pretreated with steroids) and high levels (e.g. post menopausal women) all responded to LH-RH with a release of LH and FSH. The results of these early studies with the natural LH-RH were confirmed by the use of synthetic LH-RH. These investigations made in Mexico with TRH and LH-RH preceded all other clinical studies by a wide margin. Subsequently various clinical investigations with LH-RH agonists and antagonists were also carried out. All these studies played a major role in introducing hypothalamic-releasing hormones into clinical medicine. 相似文献

We studied the effect of repeated treatment with amitriptyline (10 mg/kg, p.o., twice daily for 14 days) or electroconvulsive shock (ECS) (once daily for 10 days) on the thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) content and TRH receptors in the cerebral cortex, nucleus accumbens, striatum and septum of the rat. Repeated amitriptyline did not significantly affect the density or affinity of TRH receptors in the examined structures, but caused a marked increase in the TRH content in the striatum and nucleus accumbens. Long-term treatment with ECS reduced the density and affinity of TRH receptors in the septum only, but it increased the TRH concentration in the cerebral cortex and striatum. These results, together with the literature data, indicate that there is no simple relationship between the brain content (and release) of TRH and the functional sensitivity of TRH receptors on one hand, and the density of these receptors on the other. 相似文献

A 60 year old man with panhypopituitarism due to a large meningioma and prolonged and exaggerated thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) responses is described. Initial investigations showed a subnormal urinary free cortisol concentration, a low serum cortisol taken at 0900 hours, and a low free T4 concentration. The TSH was towards the upper end of the normal range. Subsequently pituitary function tests showed subnormal production of luteinising hormone in response to luteinising hormone releasing hormone (LHRH) and a short synacthen test with a low 30 minute cortisol value. Long synacthen testing showed a normal response at four days, confirming that the abnormalities were due to a pituitary or hypothalamic cause. A computed tomogram showed a large meningioma compressing the hypothalamus, pituitary, and temporal lobe. TRH testing showed a prolonged and exaggerated response, consistent with tertiary hypothyroidism. 相似文献

Inappropriate secretion of thyrotropin (TSH) is a rare cause of hyperthyroidism, and it is caused by either a TSH-producing
pituitary adenoma (usually a macroadenoma) or to selective pituitary resistance to thyroid hormone. The case of a 31-yr-old
male who presented with clinical features of thyrotoxicosis, including episodes of thyrotoxic paralysis, and a thyroid profile
characterized by free hyperthyroxinemia and hypertriiodothyronemia with a nonsuppressed, inadequately normal TSH is reported.
Dynamic testing showed both, lack of TSH stimulation by thyroid-releasing hormone (TRH), and lack of suppression by T3, consistent
with autonomous TSH secretion. Pituitary MRI revealed a microadenoma. Seventy five percent of the patient’s serum TSH immunoreactivity
eluted as α-subunit in Sephadex G-100 chromatography. A diagnosis of TSH-secreting microadenoma was established, and the patient
was treated successfully with bromocriptine, which resulted in both clinical and biochemical resolution of his hyperthyroidism.
Two months later, he became hyperthyroid again during bromocriptine therapy. Octreotide was started with adequate control
of his symptoms and normalization of his free T4 level. He eventually underwent transsphenoidal surgery with successful resection
of a chromophobic microadenoma which immunostained for TSH, growth hormone (GH), luteinizing hormone (LH), and follicle-stimulating
hormone (FSH). One month postoperatively he is clinically and biochemically euthyroid on no medications. 相似文献
