[Catecholamine concentration in the hypothalamus following alteration of pituitary adrenocorticotropic function].
Norepinephrine, epinephrine and serotonin levels were studied in male rabbit hypothalamus and midbrain under the influence of different factors potentiating the hypophysial adrenocorticotropic function. Intensification of this adrenohypophysial function was accompanied by a certain decrease in the hypothalamic and midbrain norepinephrine level and by the appearance of epinephrine normally absent here. The role of serotonin in the regulation of the investigated pituitary function was not revealed since potentiation of this function was observed both with the lowered and with the elevated concentrations of this monoamine in the hypothalamus.
