Galanin-like peptide stimulates vasopressin, oxytocin and adrenocorticotropic hormone release in rats
Abstract
Galanin-like peptide is a recently identified neuropeptide. We examined the effects of stressful stimuli on expression of c-Fos protein in galanin-like peptide neurons, and the effects of central infusion of galanin-like peptide on release of stress hormones, vasopressin, oxytocin and adrenocorticotropic hormone, in male rats. Foot shock stress induced expression of c-Fos protein in galanin-like peptide neurons in the hypothalamus. Intracerebroventricular injection of galanin-like peptide significantly increased plasma concentrations of vasopressin, oxytocin and adrenocorticotropic hormone. Galanin-like peptide also increased blood pressure, heart rates and plasma glucose concentrations, but significantly changed neither plasma osmolality nor blood haemoglobin concentration. A neuropeptide Y-Y1 receptor antagonist, BIBP3226, did not significantly change galanin-like peptide-induced hormone release. It is possible that galanin-like peptide is involved in vasopressin, oxytocin and adrenocorticotropic hormone release from the pituitary during stress.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
