Experiments were carried out to increase the endogenous levels of TRH in brain and spinal cord. After 7 days of continuous oral ingestion of TRH analogs (D-pGlu-Leu-ProNH2, pGlu-Leu-Pro, pGlu-Pro-ProNH2, or pGlu-Leu-pyrrolidide), spinal cord and brain levels of TRH were elevated, whereas the content of TRH metabolite, cyclo(His-Pro), was decreased. In addition, the TRH analogs inhibited in vitro metabolism of [3H-Pro]-TRH by brain and spinal cord extracts. Our data show that certain TRH analogs can elevate tissue levels of TRH by inhibiting its metabolism. Furthermore, because these analogs do not affect interaction between TRH and its receptor, the elevated TRH can effectively enhance TRH-related bioactivity.

D001921 Brain The part of CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM that is contained within the skull (CRANIUM). Arising from the NEURAL TUBE, the embryonic brain is comprised of three major parts including PROSENCEPHALON (the forebrain); MESENCEPHALON (the midbrain); and RHOMBENCEPHALON (the hindbrain). The developed brain consists of CEREBRUM; CEREBELLUM; and other structures in the BRAIN STEM. Encephalon
D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D013973 Thyrotropin-Releasing Hormone A tripeptide that stimulates the release of THYROTROPIN and PROLACTIN. It is synthesized by the neurons in the PARAVENTRICULAR NUCLEUS of the HYPOTHALAMUS. After being released into the pituitary portal circulation, TRH (was called TRF) stimulates the release of TSH and PRL from the ANTERIOR PITUITARY GLAND.

D017981 Receptors, Neurotransmitter Cell surface receptors that bind signalling molecules released by neurons and convert these signals into intracellular changes influencing the behavior of cells. Neurotransmitter is used here in its most general sense, including not only messengers that act to regulate ion channels, but also those which act on second messenger systems and those which may act at a distance from their release sites. Included are receptors for neuromodulators, neuroregulators, neuromediators, and neurohumors, whether or not located at synapses.
