We have studied the effect of the intravenous administration of somatostatin (SRIF) on the thyrotropin (TSH) response to intravenous dermorphin (D), a new potent opioid peptide, in 7 healthy men. D significantly increased the serum TSH concentration. SRIF administration prior to, during and after D completely prevented the D-induced rise in serum TSH. These results confirm that D stimulates TSH release in man and that this stimulatory effect can be prevented by SRIF.

Abstract

We have studied the effect of the intravenous administration of somatostatin (SRIF) on the thyrotropin (TSH) response to intravenous dermorphin (D), a new potent opioid peptide, in 7 healthy men. D significantly increased the serum TSH concentration. SRIF administration prior to, during and after D completely prevented the D-induced rise in serum TSH. These results confirm that D stimulates TSH release in man and that this stimulatory effect can be prevented by SRIF.
