In mammals, the magnocellular neurons of the supraoptic nucleus (SON) have been
classified into vasopressin-(VP) and oxytocin-(OT) producing subtypes. The degree to which …

The supraoptic and paraventricular hypothalamic nuclei are the principal sources of the
neurohypophysial hormones, oxytocin and vasopressin. In both nuclei, these hormones are …

A cell‐by‐cell analysis of the magnocellular elements in hypothalami of fifty Long‐Evans
(normal) and Brattleboro (diabetes insipidis) rats was done using the unlabeled antibody …

The magnocellular neurones of the supraoptic nucleus which synthesize and secrete
vasopressin and oxytocin have been commonly regarded as simple “output” neurones in …

Magnocellular neurones in the supraoptic nucleus of the hypothalamus are usually
separated by neuropil and glial elements. In lactating animals, however, the surface …

It has been postulated that osmoreceptors are situated in either or both of two components of
the lamina terminalis, the subfornical organ (sfo) and organum vasculosum laminae …

Processes of magnocellular neurosecretory cells in the rat supraoptic nucleus which project
along the pial surface in the ventral glial lamina were investigated using …

The neurons of the supraoptic nucleus in the rat hypothalamus are reported not to possess
receptors for gonadal steroids and sexual dimorphism has not previously been described in …

A comparative quantitative analysis was carried out on identified supraoptic neurones of
male and female Wistar and Long Evans rats under normal conditions and after chronic …

Light microscopic studies in our laboratory have indicated that the lateral septum, amygdala,
and ventral subiculum project in a perinuclear fashion to the paraventricular (PVN) …
