摘要：

Prolactin (PRL) and vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) mRNA levels were elevated in the brainstem of neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) gene knockout (KO) mice compared to the levels in nNOS control mice. In addition, PRL mRNA levels increased in the hypothalamus and the brainstem of nNOS control mice after administration of 7-nitro-indazole (7-NI), a relatively selective nNOS inhibitor. The results suggest that NO inhibits PRL. No differences in the genes measured were observed in inducible NOS KO mice. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
