    Abstract:
    The neurotransmitter catecholamines control metabolism 5-HT in pineal gland by stimulating pineal serotonin-N-acetyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.5) activity [1, 2]. To prove the influence of FP on the metabolism 5-HT provoked by norepinephrine was tested. Rat pineal gland were incubated in media containing 5-HT- 14C or 5-HT- 14C and FP (1-10(-6)-1-10(-4) M). Norepinephrine (1-10(-6)-1-10(-4)M) was added at the start of the experiment. The level of cyclic 3',5'-AMP, activity of HIOMT and metabolites of 5-HT-14C was examined. The results have suggested that the FP inhibit the provoked by norepinephrine metabolism of 5-HT in the rat pineal gland by decrease the formation of c-3',5'-AMP.
