8 mg of naloxone were administered IV to 14 normal volunteers in a placebo-controlled, double-blind experiment. Plasma levels of beta-endorphin, cortisol, prolactin, growth hormone, HVA and MHPG were determined before and 45 min after administration. Naloxone elicited significant increases in cortis

It has been demonstrated that interleukin 1 (ILl) injection provokes a great variety of biological effects, notably an activation of the corticotropic axis, increasing plasma adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and corticosterone. However, the primary site of action of IL1 is still controversial. In
The present work describes time-dependent changes in the content of corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH), adrenocorticotropin (ACTH), and P-endorphin (P-EP) in the hypothalamus (HT) and anterior pituitary (AP) and in the concentration of ACTH and P-EP in the plasma during the 17P estradiol (E,) ben
