The effect of suckling on plasma vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) values was evaluated in 6 nursing women on the 3rd to 4th day postpartum. Plasma prolactin (PRL) concentrations were also measured. Plasma VIP values (20.6 +/- 3.2 pg/ml in baseline) significantly (p less than 0.05) increased, reaching a maximum (53.5 +/- 10.9 pg/ml) 20 min after the starting of suckling. A possible role of VIP in the suckling-induced PRL release in humans cannot be excluded.
对6名产后第3至4天的哺乳期妇女,评估了哺乳对血浆血管活性肠肽(VIP)值的影响。同时也测量了血浆催乳素(PRL)浓度。血浆VIP值(基线时为20.6±3.2 pg/ml)显著升高(p<0.05),在开始哺乳后20分钟达到最高值(53.5±10.9 pg/ml)。不能排除VIP在人类哺乳诱导的PRL释放中可能发挥的作用。
