Determination of the source of 5-hydroxytryptaminergic neuronal projections to the neural and intermediate lobes of the rat pituitary gland through the use of electrical stimulation and lesioning experiments

5-Hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)-containing axons and terminals have been visualized in the neural and intermediate lobes of the rat pituitary gland, but the origin of these fibers remains in question. This study was designed to determine if 5-HT cell bodies in the brainstem or in the dorsomedial nucleus...
