Neurohumoral control of the pineal gland. A model for the study of neuroendocrine integrative processes
This article discusses the experimental evidence which suggests that the pineal gland and its innervating neurons are useful paradigms for the study of neuroendocrine integrative processes. The obtained results can be summarized as follows: 1) existence of putative receptors for various hormones (es...
