Cholecystokinin induced signaling in rat glioma C6 cells.

abstract：:Opiates have been shown to affect prolactin secretion directly at the pituitary level. However, opiate binding sites have not been characterized on anterior pituitary tissue. In the present work we show that a soluble factor present in anterior pituitary membrane preparation inhibit opiate binding on striatal membrane...
