Plasma histamine levels of rats anesthetized with pentobarbital sodium were significantly increased by intravenous administration of neurotensin (NT, 1 nmole/kg) with the maximum effect at 3 min, and a return to the initial levels in 20 min. Treatment of animals with compound 48/80 or disodium cromoglycate completely inhibited the elevation of histamine level by NT, however, treatment with reserpine or diphenhydramine and adrenalectomy did not affect the elevation. Plasma adrenaline levels increased transiently 1 min after NT injection, and adrenalectomy and treatment with compound 48/80 or diphenhydramine markedly reduced the elevation of adrenaline levels after NT injection. Plasma levels of noradrenaline were unchanged upon NT injection. These results provide direct evidence of the release of endogenous histamine and adrenaline following NT administration, and suggest the contribution of these amines to the NT-induced triphasic blood pressure responses (the first depressor, second pressor and third depressor responses) reported previously.
