Abstract:
:Bilateral destruction of the hypothalamic paraventricular nuclei (PVN) produced a profound depression of plasma TSH and the median eminence TRH concentration in hypothyroid rats. Anterior pituitary type II iodothyronine 5'-deiodinase (5'-D) activity was consistently lower but not significantly different in sham- and PVN-lesioned rats. Treatment with suboptimal replacement doses of 0.15 and 0.75 micrograms T4/100 g BW.day produced a graded depression of plasma TSH in the PVN (P less than 0.02), but not in the sham (P greater than 0.8) groups. Adenohypophyseal 5'-D was depressed in both sham and PVN groups by the highest T4 dose. Plasma T4 was much lower in PVN than in sham rats given comparable doses of T4 (P less than 0.001), but plasma T3 was not significantly different. This suggests that an increase in peripheral T4 metabolism was produced by PVN lesions. Our data indicate that changes in adenohypophyseal 5'-D activity are not responsible for the decrease in plasma TSH in PVN-lesioned rats and that neither the PVN nor endogenous TRH plays a significant role in the regulation of anterior pituitary 5'-D activity.
