    Abstract:
    To Clarify the relationship between the time interval and pituitary Luteinizing hormone (LH), Follicular stimulation hormone (FSH) and prolactin (PRL) secretion function under LHRH-TRH stimulation, 4 mature female baboons were used. Two consecutive LHRH (100 micrograms)-TRH (250 micrograms) stimulations with a 60 min interval between them was carried out in the early follicular phase, late follicular phase and mid luteal phase in the same baboon in the first menstrual cycle, then carried out with a 120 min interval between tests in the third menstrual cycle. The LH, FSH and PRL were measured by specific radioimmunoassay. The PRL maximum response to the first bolus of TRH was higher than maximum response to the second bolus of TRH. The PRL maximum response to the second TRH at a 120 min interval was higher than the maximum response to the second TRH at a 60 min interval. It seems that the TRH had the dominant effect on PRL releasing but not on PRL Priming. The maximum LH response to the second bolus of LHRH was higher than the maximum response to the first bolus of LHRH. The LH maximum response to the second bolus of LHRH at a 60 min interval was greater than the maximum response at a 120 min interval in the follicular phase but it was the reverse in the luteal phase. The FSH response to the second LHRH was different from the LH response.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
