The influence of gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH) and its analogues (i.e., agonist and antagonist) on vasopressin (VP) release from the rat hypothalamo-neurohypophysial (H-N) system was studied both in vitro and in vivo. Additionally, it was determined whether the possible response of vasopressinergic neurones to these peptides could be modified by melatonin through a cAMP-dependent mechanism. In this study we demonstrate, for the first time, that the highly selective GnRH agonist (i.e… Expand
