Thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) or 50 mM K+stimulated the acute release of prolactin from the GH4C1strain of rat pituitary cells in culture. The enhanced release of prolactin was inhibited in a dose-related manner by the Ca+2antagonist Co+2(2.0 to 0.5 mM) as well as by the Ca+2chelator EGTA (1.0 mM). Co+2also reduced spontaneous basal prolactin release. There was partial reversal of the inhibitory effect of Co+2(2.0 mM) by Ca+2(2.0 mM) and complete reversal of the inhibitory effect of EGTA (1.0 mM) by Ca+2(2.0 mM). The enhanced release of prolactin stimulated by 50 mM K+was maximal by 10–20 minutes in medium containing 0.67 to 0.74 mM Ca+2. Na+(50 mM) did not mimic the effect of high K+. We conclude that Ca+2is an essential cation in mediating the actions of high external K+and TRH on the release of prolactin by GH4C1cells.
