Summary Using indomethacin (Ind), a prostaglandin, synthesis inhibitor, in vivo experiments in rats and in vitro experiments with perifusion systems of rat thyroids and pituitaries were conducted. After 35 days of intragastric infusion of Ind, serum TSH levels were markedly increased, the thyroid was swollen and, as a consequence, T3 and T4 levels were normal. The T3 release from perifused rat thyroids under continuous stimulation with 10 mU/ml TSH was inhibited significantly (p〈0.01) by 1.0×10−6 M Ind. On the other hand, the TSH release from perifused rat pituitaries under TRH stimulation was enhanced conspicuously by Ind. It was concluded that Ind decelerated thyroid hormone release from the thyroid and accelerated TSH release from the pituitary in perifusion systems.
