  • Title: Ultrastructure of rat pinealocytes in vitro: influence of gonadotropic hormones and LH-RH.
    Author: Karasek M, Marek K, Kunert-Radek J.
    Journal: Cell Tissue Res; 1978 Dec 29; 195(3):547-56. PubMed ID: 365351.
    Abstract:
    The influence of gonadotropic hormones on the ultrastructure of rat pinealocytesin short-term organ culture was studied. Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG), as well as pregnant mare serum gonadotropin (PMSG), caused a marked activation of pinealocytes. An hypothesis is discussed implying the presence of a feedback mechanism between the pineal organ and the hypothalamo-hypophysial system.
