Thyrotropin-releasing hormone: stimulation of colonic activity following intracerebroventricular administration

Smith JR, TR La Hann, RM Chesnut, MA Carino, and A Horita

Intraventricularly administered thyrotropin-releasing hormone in rabbits elicited an increase in intraluminal pressure changes, a response commonly associated with muscular activity of the colon. The response appears to be central in origin with peripheral expression relying primarily on cholinergic receptors.
