title: [The role of cholecystokinin octapeptide (CCK-8) in regulating thyrotropin secretion in rats. In vivo studies].
abstract: The effect of cholecystokinin octapeptide (CCK-8) on basal and TRH-stimulated secretion of TSH was investigated in 67 male Sprague-Dawley rats. Blood for TSH determinations was sampled by cannulation of right heart auricle in urethane narcosis before and four times during 60 minutes following CCK-8 administration. It was found that CCK-8 administered to the lateral brain ventricle at a dose of 0.5 microgram per animal caused a decrease in blood serum TSH concentration but did not change the response of TSH to TRH. Intravenous administration of CCK-8 at doses of 2 and 20 micrograms/kg had no effect on blood serum concentration of TSH.
