TI  - The influence of vasopressin or oxytocin on thyroid-stimulating hormone and 
      thyroid hormones' concentrations in blood plasma of euthyroid rats.
PG  - 813-23
AB  - The effects of arginine vasopressin (AVP) and oxytocin (OT) upon 
      thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), free thyroxine (FT4) and free triiodothyronine 
      (FT3) release were studied in euthyroid rats. Intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) 
      infusion of AVP in doses of 0.5 ng or 5 ng led to significant increases in plasma 
      levels of TSH as well as FT4 and FT3. The effects of OT injected i.c.v. in 
      similar doses were not consistent (there was no parallel between the changes of 
      respective hormones plasma levels). It may be concluded that vasopressin modulate 
      the pituitary-thyroid system function; AVP is probably a physiological stimulator 
      of TSH and thyroid hormones secretion.
