The effect of galanin (GAL) on the release of GH-releasing factor (GRF) and somatostatin (SRIF) was examined in an in vitro perifusion system of rat hypothalamic slices. GAL at doses of 10(-7) and 10(-6)M stimulated the release of immunoreactive GRF while it failed to affect SRIF release. Therefore, in vivo stimulation of GH release by GAL may be explained in part by the GRF-releasing effect of this peptide.
在大鼠下丘脑切片的体外灌流系统中,研究了甘丙肽(GAL)对生长激素释放因子(GRF)和生长抑素(SRIF)释放的影响。10^(-7)和10^(-6)M剂量的GAL刺激了免疫反应性GRF的释放,而对SRIF的释放没有影响。因此,GAL在体内对生长激素释放的刺激作用可能部分归因于该肽的GRF释放效应。
