Catecholamine utilization in specific rat brain nuclei after short-term hyperprolactinaemia.

Abstract:

:Endogenous hyperprolactinaemia was induced in intact male rats by transplantation of pituitaries under the kidney capsule. Five days later the utilization of noradrenaline (NA) and dopamine (DA) in individual brain nuclei and changes of plasma prolaction (PRL) were measured. Inhibition of catecholamine synthesis by alpha-methyl-p-tyrosine (alpha-MPT) was used to measure utilization. Hyperprolactinaemia increased the utilization of NA in the locus coeruleus, the cell-body region of the dorsal noradrenergic bundle (DNB), but decreased it in some terminal projections of the same pathway (e.g. the cingulate gyrus). DA utilization was increased by hyperprolactinaemia in the eminentia mediana. In the nigrostriatal DA-ergic projection, hyperprolactinaemia decreased the utilization of DA in the cell-body region (substantia nigra) and increased it in the terminal projection (nucleus caudatus). In the ventral tegmental area (mesolimbic DA-ergic projection), hyperprolactinaemia decreased the utilization of DA. It is concluded that hyperprolactinaemia affects neurotransmission in the hypothalamus and also in specific extrahypothalamic pathways (e.g. DNB, nigrostriatal and mesolimbic DA-ergic projections) and that these changes may correlate with some behavioural effects of the pituitary hormone.
