| Research Abstract |
The effects of salsolinol (SAL) on the secretion of prolactin (PRL) were examined in ruminants.SAL was able to stimulate the release of PRL not only in male and female calves, but also in adult cows. The seasonal effects on PRL-releasing response to SAL were observed in goats, and a long photo period enhanced the PRL-releasing response to SAL in goats. A dopamine agonist inhibited the SAL-induced PRL release in goats. These results show that SAL is a potent physiological PRL-releasing factor in ruminants.
