Abstract

In previous studies we have established that intracisternal (i.c.) but not peripheral 〈intravenous〉 administration of neurotens in (NT), a brain and gastrointestinal tridecapeptide, totally prevents the development of gastric lesions produced by cold-restraint stress (CRS) with food-deprived rats. In this investigation, removal of the pituitary and adrenal gland, anterior pituitary hormone secretion and gastric acid secretion were evaluated independently as potential intermediates for NT's protective effect.
