Thyrotrophin and prolactin responses to thyrotrophin-releasing hormone in patients with streak gonad syndrome. 1983

P Bösze, and Z Kóvacs, and J Egyed, and J László, and G Szilágyi

Plasma TSH and Prl responses to iv TRH (200 micrograms) were studied in 21 euthyroid patients with streak gonad syndrome which is characterised by high levels of FSH and LH and low level of oestrogen and in 9 healthy women. The syndrome is associated with a variety of chromosome complements. Basal TSH and Prl responses to TRH were normal in patients with streak gonads irrespective of their chromosomal complements. Peak levels of both the TSH and Prl occurred at 15-30 min following TRH. The data might suggest that in hypergonadotrophic oestrogen deficiency neither the TSH nor the Prl response to TRH are attenuated. It does not seem that the associated chromosome anomalies alter the TSH and Prl responses to TRH in euthyroid affected patients.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008297 Male Males
D011388 Prolactin A lactogenic hormone secreted by the adenohypophysis (PITUITARY GLAND, ANTERIOR). It is a polypeptide of approximately 23 kD. Besides its major action on lactation, in some species prolactin exerts effects on reproduction, maternal behavior, fat metabolism, immunomodulation and osmoregulation. Prolactin receptors are present in the mammary gland, hypothalamus, liver, ovary, testis, and prostate.

D006059 Gonadal Dysgenesis A number of syndromes with defective gonadal developments such as streak GONADS and dysgenetic testes or ovaries. The spectrum of gonadal and sexual abnormalities is reflected in their varied sex chromosome (SEX CHROMOSOMES) constitution as shown by the karyotypes of 45,X monosomy (TURNER SYNDROME); 46,XX (GONADAL DYSGENESIS, 46XX); 46,XY (GONADAL DYSGENESIS, 46,XY); and sex chromosome MOSAICISM; (GONADAL DYSGENESIS, MIXED). Their phenotypes range from female, through ambiguous, to male. This concept includes gonadal agenesis. Gonadal Agenesis,Dysgenesis, Gonadal

D013972 Thyrotropin A glycoprotein hormone secreted by the adenohypophysis (PITUITARY GLAND, ANTERIOR). Thyrotropin stimulates THYROID GLAND by increasing the iodide transport, synthesis and release of thyroid hormones (THYROXINE and TRIIODOTHYRONINE). Thyrotropin consists of two noncovalently linked subunits, alpha and beta. Within a species, the alpha subunit is common in the pituitary glycoprotein hormones (TSH; LUTEINIZING HORMONE and FSH), but the beta subunit is unique and confers its biological specificity.

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.
