title: The morphodynamic patterns of the paraventricular nucleus in rats under experimental conditions. II. Neurosecretory activity.
abstract: A relationship between the morphodynamic pattern of both the PVN and neurosecretory cells scattered in the hypothalamus and the time elapsed after the animal's last meal was found. The necessity for controlling the feeding time of animals in experiments on PVN activity is emphasized.
