Journal ArticleDOI
LRF producing cells of the mammalian hypothalamus. A fluorescent antibody study.
TL;DR: The demonstration of perikarya of mediocellular neurones producing LRF, using indirect immunofluorescence on slides and anti synthetic LRF antibodies, requires both their activation and the inhibition of their axoplasmic transport, suggesting that LRF is present in an immunoreactive form, but usually in very low concentrations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ontogenesis of cells producing polypeptide hormones (ACTH, MSH, LPH, GH, Prolactin) in the fetal hypophysis of the rat: Influence of the hypothalamus
TL;DR: Based on the treatment of serial paraffin sections with various antisera, it was clearly shown that MSH, ACTH, and LPH occur in the same cells located in the pars distalis as in the Pars intermedia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Immunohistochemical evidence for the presence of melatonin in the pineal gland, the retina and the Harderian gland.
TL;DR: The presence of melatonin is demonstrated in the pineal gland, the retina and the Harderian gland in some mammalian and non-mammalian vertebrates, using a specific fluorescence labelled antibody technique.
Journal ArticleDOI
Induction of pituitary lactotrope differentiation by luteinizing hormone alpha subunit
M. Begeot,Fiona J. Hemming,Paul M. Dubois,Yves Combarnous,Maurice P. Dubois,Michel L. Aubert +5 more
TL;DR: Adding gonadotropin releasing hormone to cultures of fetal rat pituitary induced differentiation of lactotropes as revealed by immunocytochemistry and the alpha subunit may have a specific biological activity of its own with probable practical use in clinical investigations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Immunofluorescence Study of the Preoptico-Infundibular LRF Neurosecretory Pathway in the Normal, Castrated or Testosterone-Treated Male Guinea Pig
TL;DR: Melatonin did not produce a further increase in number of reactivecells, but it did produce an increase in the intensity of the immunoreactivity of the perikar...
