[Role of the hypophysis in fixing postural asymmetry at the segmental level in hemisection of the spinal cord].
The role of the pituitary in the mechanisms of posttraumatic reorganizations of the segmental apparatus was studied. Hypophysectomized rats failed to demonstrate postural asymmetry after spinal cord hemisection. The lack of asymmetry is connected with a considerable decrease in postural asymmetry factor activity in the cerebrospinal fluid and cerebral tissue. It was established that pituitary tissue is characterized by the maximal level of postural asymmetry factor activity after hemisection.
