TLDR
Electrolytic bilateral lesions of the nuclei habenulae were made in male, adult photostimulated quail, and Habenular destruction led to a marked decrease in the plasma thyroxine level, whereas sham operated birds did not differ from controls.Abstract:
Electrolytic bilateral lesions of th nuclei habenulae were made in male, adult photostimulated quail. Habenular destruction led to a marked decrease in the plasma thyroxine level (40%), whereas sham operated birds did not differ from controls. This result appears to be somewhat different from those obtained in mammals and the mechanisms of habenular-thyroid interrelationships are unknown.read more

Relevance of the habenular complex to neuropsychiatry : a review and hypothesis
TL;DR: This review summarizes anatomical, functional, and pharmacological aspects of the habenular complex and discusses its potential contribution to the pathophysiology of selected neuropsychiatric and movement disorders.

Protective effect of the flavonoid silybin dihemisuccinate on the toxicity of phenylhydrazine on rat liver
TL;DR: Using a hemoglobin‐free perfusion system, this work demonstrates the protective effect of the in vivo treatment of the rat with silybin dihemisuccinate on the hepatic glutathione depletion and lipid peroxidation induced by the infusion of phenylhydrazine into the perfusion buffer.

Comparison of plasma thyroxine levels following short exposure to cold and TRH administration in intact and pituitary autografted quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica).
TL;DR: The thyrotropic functional abilities of ectopically transplanted anterior pituitaries were tested by subjecting quail bearing their adenohypophysis in juxtarenal position either to a short cold exposure or to an intravenous injection of TRH.
