Neuropeptide Y gene expression in male sheep: influence of photoperiod and testosterone.

abstract：:This study was designed to investigate the effects of penfluridol, a potent neuroleptic calmodulin inhibitor, on basal and secretagogue-stimulated secretion of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), growth hormone (GH), and luteinizing hormone (LH). The drug had no effect on basal TSH or LH release, but decreased GH relea...
