Elevation of non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) in vivo is associated with abnormal control of TSH. To determine whether TSH secretion is directly inhibited by NEFA, as has been reported for GH, cultured rat anterior pituitary cells were exposed for 20 h to oleic acid in medium containing 7.7 x 10(-5) mol/l bovine serum albumin (BSA). In a molar ratio with albumin of 1.2 (total oleic acid 9 x 10(-5) mol/l), or greater, oleic acid inhibited basal GH secretion (maximum inhibition to 40% of control) while basal TSH was less affected, a ratio of 3 (2.3 x 10(-4) mol/l oleic acid) or greater causing a smaller degree of inhibition (maximum inhibition to 80% of control). In the presence of 10(-9) mol/l growth hormone-releasing hormone or 10(-8) mol/l TRH, inhibition was achieved at a ratio of 12 (9 x 10(-4) mol/l oleic acid) or greater. Basal TSH was less sensitive to inhibition by thyroxine (T4) in the presence of oleic acid/albumin at a ratio of 6 or greater, and inhibition by oleic acid was less than additive with T4 at a ratio of 6 or greater. Responses to tri-iodothyronine (T3) were unaffected at a ratio of 6 (4.6 x 10(-4) mol/l oleic acid), but a ratio of 12 inhibited the effects of both T3 and T4 on TSH.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
