[Role of the paraventricular and ventromedial nuclei of the hypothalamus in activating the hypophyseal-adrenocortical system].
Immobilization of rabbits resulted in the activation of the pituitary-adrenocortical system. 3--7 weeks after lesion of paraventricular and ventromedial nuclei corticosteroid response to immobilization was inhibited. The rise of plasma corticosteroid level elicited by immobilization after paraventricular nucleus lesion was much smaller than after ventromedial nucleus lesion. The plasma corticosteroid response to stress in the group with paraventricular nucleus lesion plus ventromedial nucleus lesion was not lower than after lesion of paraventricular nucleus alone.
