|September 1, 1978
Abstract:
Experimental results demonstrated that castration in male rats led to the changes in catecholamine metabolism in various regions of the brian. In particular there is an acceleration of labeled noradrenalin- disappearance (3H-noradrenaline) from the limbic system of the hypothalamus formations. Testosterone propionate restored the initial level of 3H-noradrenaline in the mentioned structures of the brain. The data obtained indicated that adrenorecption of the rynecephalo-hypothalamic complex took part in the central regulation of the gonadotropic function of the hypophysis.
