Release of immunoreactive TRH in serum-free cultures of mouse hypothalamic cells. 1983

C Loudes, and A Faivre-Bauman, and A Barret, and D Grouselle, and J Puymirat, and A Tixier-Vidal

Serum-free cultures of mouse hypothalamic cells were used as a model for studying TRH (thyroliberin) secretion in vitro. Supplementation of the culture medium with triiodothyronine, corticosterone and polyunsaturated fatty acids is necessary to obtain a substantial release capacity of TRH neurons. Under these conditions depolarization of the cells with 60 mM K+ results in a calcium-dependent release of immunoreactive TRH.

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.
