Hormone actions vary widely, but can include stimulation or inhibition of growth, induction or suppression of
Hormone secretion can be stimulated and inhibited by:
In many cases, one hormone may regulate the production and release of other hormones.

 Thyrotropin-Releasing Hormone, Focus on Basic Neurobiology
TRH levels in secretory cells of the hypothalamus must be maintained at concentrations sufficient to ensure functional integrity of the hypothalamic–pituitary–thyroid (HPT) axis, whereas extrahypothalamic levels of the peptide are likely to be responsive to other behavioral and physiological demands.
TRH may inhibit its own enzymatic removal by enhancing translocation of protein kinase C from cytosol to plasma membrane, where it can inactivate pyroglutamyl peptidase II by phosphorylation of the enzyme.
TRH was not the first peptide found in the central nervous system (CNS).

 Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone
Thyroid-stimulating hormone, also known as thyrotropin, is secreted from cells in the anterior pituitary called thyrotrophs, finds its receptors on epithelial cells in the thyroid gland, and stimulates that gland to synthesize and release thyroid hormones.
Secretion of thyroid-releasing hormone, and hence, TSH, is inhibited by high blood levels of thyroid hormones in a classical negative feedback loop.
Thyroid-releasing hormone is secreted by hypothalamic neurons into hypothalamic-hypophyseal portal blood, finds its receptors on thyrotrophs in the anterior pituitary and stimulates secretion of TSH.

 Dorlands Medical Dictionary
releasing hormones,   hormones elaborated in one structure that cause the release of hormones from another structure, such as those from the hypothalamus that act on the adenohypophysis.
follicle-stimulating hormone,  (FSH)   one of the gonadotropic hormones of the adenohypophysis, a glycopeptide of approximately 30,000 daltons that stimulates the growth and maturation of ovarian follicles, stimulates estrogen secretion, promotes the endometrial changes characteristic of the first portion (proliferative phase) of the mammalian menstrual cycle, and stimulates spermatogenesis in the male.
The term is applied to substances of established chemical identity, whereas substances of unknown chemical structure are called releasing factors (see under factor).

 Encyclopedia article on Thyrotropin-releasing hormone [EncycloZine]
The sequence of TRH was first determined and the hormone was synthesized by Roger Guillemin and Andrew V. Schally in 1969.
TRH is produced by the hypothalamus and travels across the median eminence to the pituitary via the pituitary portal system.
The presence of TRH can also be detected in other parts of the brain, such as the gastrointestinal system and pancreatic islets.

 Protein kinase C is necessary for recovery from the thyrotropin-releasing hormone-induced r-ERG current reduction in GH3 rat anterior pituitary cells -- Gómez-Varela et al. 547 (3): 913 -- The Journal of Physiology Online
Abundant evidence accumulated over more than a decade indicates that regulation of ether-à-go-go -related (ERG) channel activity by the hypothalamic neuropeptide thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) constitutes an important point of control of electrical activity (and hence of intracellular Ca levels and the secretory process) in anterior pituitary cells (Barros et al.
The biochemical cascade linking activation of phospholipase C-coupled thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) receptors to rat ERG (r-ERG) channel modulation was studied in situ using perforated-patch clamped adenohypophysial GH cells and pharmacological inhibitors.
It also indicates that a quantification of the hormonal effects on r-ERG can be performed by subtracting the current remaining in the presence of E-4031 from that elicited in control conditions and comparing it with the difference between the TRH- and E-4031-resistant currents.

VSV-TRHR-GFP was constructed from the long isoform of the rat TRH receptor as detailed under "Experimental Procedures." The COOH-terminal amino acid derived from the TRHR was altered from Ile to Leu, and a two-amino acid (Gly-Ala) linker was inserted between the two elements of the fusion protein to facilitate construction.
TRH was able to overcome the blockade of internalization caused

 Yano N, Luo LG. Effect of Thyrotropin Releasing Hormone (TRH) on Gene Expressions in Rat Pancreas: Approach by Microarray Hybridization. JOP. J Pancreas (Online) 2004; 5(4):193-204. [Full text]
Thyrotropin releasing hormone (TRH) was originally identified as a hypothalamic factor with a key role in regulation of the thyroid axis [ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 ].
TRH also enlarged pancreas and increased pancreatic DNA content but deletion of TRH gene expression caused hyperglycemia in mice, suggesting that TRH may play a critical role in pancreatic development; however, the biological mechanisms of TRH in the adult pancreas remains unclear.
TRH significantly enhanced expressions of transcription proteins, oncogenes and tumor suppressors, stress response proteins, metabolism enzymes, apoptosis-associated proteins and DNA binding and chromatin proteins while suppressing immune system proteins, trafficking/targeting proteins and intracellular transducers/effectors/modulators (Tables 2 and 3).

Ontogeny of the subcellular compartmentalization of thyrotropin releasing hormone and luteinizing hormone releasing hormone in the rat hypothalamus.
Thyrotropin releasing hormone (TRH) and LH releasing hormone (LHRH) in the gradient fractions were quantified by radioimmunoassay.
It is concluded that 1) the nature of the hypothalamic subcellular compartmentalization of TRH and LHRH is age dependent, 2) the compartmentalization of each peptide in neonatal hypothalami differs from that in the adults, and 3) the development of the mature profile of subcellular compartmentalization of TRH and LHRH proceeds asynchronously.
