Pectic Acid Effects on Prolactin Secretion in GH3/B6 Rat Pituitary Cell Line
Background: Pectic acid extracted from plants increases the secretion of prolactin (PRL) when injected intravenously into ewes or fed to rats. Fragments of ewe hypophysis and lactating rabbit mammary gland incubated in vitro in the presence of pectic acid secreted more PRL and caseins compared to the controls. However, it is not known whether pectic acid directly stimulates PRL secretion in pi...
متن کاملA Comparative study of synthetic carp GnRH and carp pituitary homogenate effects on in vitro steroidogenesis of oocytes in common carp (Cyprinus carpio)
Vitellogenic stage carp ovaries were collected aseptically and the cells of ovarian follicles were dispersed by trypsin treatment and cultivated as monolayer. Control cultures were grown in medium M199 alone. Media for experimental cultures were supplemented either with 100 µl ml-1 of CPH and CPS-carp GnRH (cultivated pituitary cell secretion affected by 10-6, 10-8, 10-10 M carp GnRH)....

متن کاملPituitary primary cell culture of Common carp (Cyprinus Carpio) and evaluation of its secretion effect on endocrine activity of incubated ovarian follicles
In this study, five carp pituitary glands were collected and dispersed enzymatically and mechanically.Then, the cells were cultivated as monolayer in MEM (minimum essential medium Eagle). The culture mediawere collected after 72 h and frozen at -20°C. Carp ovarian follicles also were separated mechanically andincubated in BSS (basic salt solution) Cortland medium in 24-well microplates for 48 h...
متن کاملNitric oxide synthase in the rat anterior pituitary gland and the role of nitric oxide in regulation of luteinizing hormone secretion.
By using immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization, we have demonstrated that the nitric oxide (NO)-synthesizing enzyme NO synthase is present in gonadotrophs and in folliculo-stellate cells of the anterior pituitary gland of male and female rats. A marked increase in levels of NO synthase protein and mRNA was observed after gonadectomy. In vitro studies on dispersed anterior pituitary cel...
متن کاملCorticotropin-releasing hormone is produced by rat corticotropes and modulates ACTH secretion in a paracrine/autocrine fashion.
Anterior pituitary hormone secretion is mainly regulated by hypothalamic releasing factors, which reach the pituitary via portal vessels. It has been demonstrated recently that these peptides can also be produced by the pituitary itself, thus possibly modulating hormone secretion in a paracrine/autocrine fashion. The object of this study was to seek evidence for the synthesis and secretion of c...
