The ultrastructure of the oviduct and the hormonal induced
alterations in the cellular organelles of prepubertal and ovariectomized
rabbits have been studied with electron-microscopic histochemical
methods.
The pseudostratified epithelium of the oviduct in prepubertal
rabbits contained both ciliated and secretory cells. The secretory
cells showed apocrine projections filled with electron-dense...
There is an increasing body of evidence that the pineal gland acts
as a neuroendocrine transducer, translating neural information about
environmental lighting condition into hormonal information. In the
rat, light controls the production of melatonin which acts via the
hypothalamic-hypophyseal pathway to control the function of the gonads,
A similar...
