Plasma levels of prolactin were determined, by radioimmunoassay, in ovariectomized, oestrogen-treated rats after administration of ether, sodium pentobarbitone, urethane, chloral hydrate or ketamine. These anaesthetics, when administered alone, induced sustained increases in the plasma level of prolactin (continuous ether inhalation), no change in prolactin secretion (urethane), or depressions in the level of prolactin (sodium pentobarbitone, chloral hydrate and ketamine). These same anaesthetics when given before perphenazine failed to alter the stimulatory effect of this phenothiazide on prolactin secretion. Sodium pentobarbitone did not alter the normal increase in prolactin concentration after intra-arterial administration of synthetic thyrotrophin releasing hormone (TRH). These results indicated that anaesthetics do not affect the response of either the central nervous system or the anterior pituitary to perphenazine or TRH although they affect prolactin secretion when administered alone. The site of action of anaesthetics must, therefore, be different from that of perphenazine or perphenazine must be capable of overcoming their influence by direct action on the pituitary.
