The influence of melatonin-free pineal extract on luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) was studied. Administration of bovine pineal extract in intact rats was found to induce a statistically significant decrease of serum LH and FSH. The pineal extract also inhibited the 24-hour-post-castration rise of serum and pituitary LH and FSH in mature male rats. The stimulating effect of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) on pituitary LH and FSH was also inhibited in intact animals. The antigonadotropic activity of melatonin-free pineal extract, melatonin and arginine-vasotocin (AVT) is discussed.
