Abstract
Intrajugular administration of LHRH (0-6 and 1-2 mug) in hypophysectomized rats which received renal grafts of anterior pituitary induced a small but significant rise in plasma GH 5 and 10 min post-treatment. LHRH, at the same dose levels, was ineffective in weight-matched intact controls. MIF, at the dose of 1-2 mug, induced a slight GH rise 5 min after treatment in hypophysectomized trasnplanted rats, while it was ineffective in intact controls. Unlike the two hypothalamic peptides, alpha-MSH (0-6 and 1-2 mug) was ineffective as a GH-releaser in both transplanted and intact rats.
