Histological and histochemical study of the magnocellular neuroendocrine system in white rat after parenteral administration of adrenaline.
The effect of a single dose of adrenaline on the neurosecretory action of the hypothalamo-hypophyseal system was investigated in 90 male rats. Increased release and transport of neurosecretory material were observed after a low dose of adrenaline, and the enhancement of the neurosecretory process was noted following a high dose. As shown in numerous reports, there is a link between the neuroendocrine system and the hypothalamic adrenergic system.
