摘要
In this study we examined whether arginine vasopressin (AVP) in the brain is involved in the adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) secretion induced by interleukin (IL)-1 beta in the rat. Human recombinant IL-1 beta (50 ng) was given intracerebroventricularly to freely moving male rats with or without a prior (15 min before) administration of anticorticotropin releasing hormone (CRH) or AVP antibody via the same route. The ACTH response to IL-1 beta was significantly reduced by both anti-CRH and anti-AVP antisera compared to the levels after normal rabbit serum. These results suggest that not only CRH but also AVP may mediate the IL-1 beta stimulation of ACTH secretion in the rat.
