  1. 01LabEx vivo tissueEfficacy outcome

    In cultured rat fetal pituitary primordia, DSIP induced differentiation of LH cells in a dose-dependent manner.

    In plain wordsIn cultured rat pituitary tissue, DSIP made more LH-producing cells develop, and more so at higher doses.

    Outcome
    IncreaseLH cell differentiation
    Study

    Studied dose
    several concentrations · added to culture medium · first day of cultureAs given in this study (rat).

    Summary
    Addition of DSIP during the first day of culture induced differentiation of LH and TSH cells only. The effect was dose-dependent.
    1 context sentence
    Summary · context
    Pituitary primordia were explanted from 11-day-old rat fetuses and cultured in a synthetic medium enriched with either DSIP at several concentrations, GnRH (10(-9) M) or TRH (10(-9) M).
