The effect of thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) was studied on local CBF (LCBF) in normal conscious rats. LCBF was measured by the autoradiographic [14C]iodoantipyrine method 5 min after TRH (5 mg/kg, i.v.) administration. TRH significantly increased LCBF in 22 of 33 brain regions. This increase of LCBF exceeded 100% of the control values in the cerebral cortices, whereas there was no significant increase in white matter or in some gray matter structures. The increase of CBF following TRH administration was abolished by pretreatment with indomethacin (5 mg/kg, i.v.). The mechanisms underlying the increase of CBF following TRH administration are discussed in relation to prostaglandin metabolism.
