Prolactin-releasing effect of tryptolines in the developing and adult male and female rats
The developmental prolactin-releasing effect of Tryptoline (T), Methoxytryptoline (MT) and Hydroxytryptoline (OHT) was examined comparatively in male and female rats. A single injection of T 15 mg/Kg increased serum prolactin in both sexes; the increase was significant from day 20 onwards. OHT evoke...
