in order to investigate the production and secretion of hypothalamic factors by the prolactin and proopiomelanocortin ( pomc ) -derived , peptide-producing , transplantable rat pituitary tumor 7315a , we determined the concentrations of corticotropin-releasing factor ( crf ) - and vasopressin ( avp ) -like immunoreactivities ( ir ) in the tumor extracts [ 14.0 +/- 1.6 ( se ) and 4.2 +/- 0.9 pmol/g , respectively ] and incubation media ( 0.26 +/- 0.01 and 0.07 +/- 0.01 pmol/10 ( 7 ) cells/h , respectively ) .
