“…Secretion of gastrin [6], insulin [3], GH [16], TSH [15], prolactin [20], and prostaglandin [4] were suppressed by the preinfusion of CT. On the other hand, hormone secretions were stimulated by CT infusion in the following hormones, such as ACTH [14], somatostatin [5,10,17], and beta-endorphin [14] secretions. Auto-regulation of CT secretion has been suggested as a feedback mechanism by some researchers using porcine thyroid slices [1,21]. Morimoto et al have supported the presence of a negative feedback mechanism of CT secretion, when salmon CT was administered to rat [19].…”
