title: [Calcium and somatostatin interaction in regulating prolactin and somatotropic hormone release from rat adenohypophysis cells in primary culture].
abstract: The effect of Ca+2 and somatostatin on prolactin and growth hormone (GH) secretion was studied in the primary cell culture of the rat adenohypophysis. A decrease in Ca+2 concentration of the medium from 1.8 to 0.1 mM inhibited prolactin release and did not influence GH secretion. An elevation of extracellular Ca+2 level up to 5 mM did not affect prolactin secretion and slightly decreased GH release. Somatostatin inhibited prolactin and GH release provided Ca+2 concentration in the medium was normal (1.8 mM) and/or diminished (0.1 mM). An increase in Ca+2 level up to 5 mM blocked the inhibitory effect of somatostatin. The results obtained show Ca+2 and somatostatin to be antagonistic in the prolactin control and GH release from adenohypophyseal cells.
