Galanin: Evidence for a hypothalamic site of action to release growth hormone

Galanin is a 29 amino acid peptide that was isolated and characterized from porcine intestinal extracts. The presence of galanin-like immunoreactivity in neuronal elements in the hypothalamus and median eminence suggested a role for it in the hypothalamic control of anterior pituitary function. A hy...

description Galanin is a 29 amino acid peptide that was isolated and characterized from porcine intestinal extracts. The presence of galanin-like immunoreactivity in neuronal elements in the hypothalamus and median eminence suggested a role for it in the hypothalamic control of anterior pituitary function. A hypothalamic site of action of galanin to stimulate growth hormone (GH) release is suggested by our observations that doses as low as 50 picomoles when infused into the third cerebroventricle of conscious, unrestrained ovariectomized rats resulted in significantly elevated plasma levels of GH. This effect was specific for GH and was dose-related. The failure of galanin to alter GH release from dispersed, cultured anterior pituitary cells in vitro further suggests that endogenous galanin plays a neuromodulatory role at the level of the median eminence, possibly affecting the release of known GH-releasing and/or inhibiting factors.
