Conclusions
-
1.
Repeated injections of TRH (in a dose of 0.5 μg/100 g body weight) twice a day for 8 days leads to accumulation of NSS in the PLP of rats, which is indirect evidence of a reduction in the intensity of release of PLP hormones into the general bloodstream.
-
2.
During long-term administration of TRH, no correlation is found between the NSS concentration in PLP and the plasma TSH and thyroid hormone levels.
-
3.
If experimental animals are given diiodotyrosine in addition to TRH, the latter does not cause the plasma TSH level to rise.
