[Diurnal rhythm of the reproductive activity of cells and the functional morphology of the adenohypophysis of rats (histological and the autoradiographic study)].
The adenohypophysis of intact mongrel male rats was studied histologically and autoradiographically. The diurnal periodicity was revealed and the successive spikes of indices of the DNA synthesis, mitotic process and secretory activity of the adenohypophysis cells were established. The maximum amount of the dividing cells was found about 12 o'clock p. m.-at the period of the least secretory and synthetizing activity of the gland.
