title: [Effect of anxiolytics--buspirone and diazepam--on the prolactin, thyrotropin and cortisol content of the blood in the green monkey].
abstract: The influence of two anxiolytics--diazepam and buspirone--on prolactin, thyrotrophin and cortisol levels in green monkey (Cercopithecus aethiops) plasma was studied 30 min following i/m injection. Diazepam at 1 mg/kg decreased prolactin and cortisol levels by 30-50% compared to the control animals. Buspirone at 2.5-10 mg/kg induced a 7-10-fold increase in prolactin level but did not change cortisol and thyrotrophin concentration. Buspirone analog--Mj 138-05 at 10 mg/kg produced a 2-3-fold increase in plasma prolactin content in some animals, while at a dose of 5 mg/kg it exerted no detectable effect. Possible neurochemical mechanisms of the effects observed are discussed.
