Rat pituitary neural lobe contained high concentrations of cholecystokinin-like immunoreactivity (CCK-LI). Section of the pituitary stalk resulted in loss of CCK-LI, and both lactation and replacement of drinking water with 2% saline resulted in marked depletion of CCK-LI. Rats with congenital diabetes insipidus (Brattleboro strain) had a 73% reduction in CCK-LI below the levels of hooded Long-Evans controls, where as levels in the brain were unchanged. Release of CCK-LI, labeled dopamine, and gamma-amino butyric acid in response to potassium depolarization was studied. There was a low fractional release of CCK-LI. Addition of sulfated CCK-8 (CCK-8s) to the medium enhanced the calcium-dependent potassium-stimulated release of dopamine, but basal release was unaffected. gamma-Amino butyric acid release was only poorly calcium dependent and not effected by extracellular CCK-8s. Vasopressin and oxytocin release were stimulated by electrical stimulation of the pituitary stalk, and were unaffected by the addition of CCK-8s to the medium. In vivo, however, the injection of 5 micrograms CCK-8s into the third ventricle resulted in increased plasma vasopressin concentrations.
