Summary

Neurosecretory nuclei of the hypothalamus and the area of infundibulum were subjected to histological investigation in tadpoles and frogs of various age. Different methods were used. Both intact animals and those subjected to diencephalon excision were studied. Apart from this, albino rats and puppies were also taken as objects for this experimental work.

The presence of neurosecretion was established not only in the bodies and the processes of the neurons and the surrounding tissues, but also in the wandering cells accumulating in their cytoplasm the positive aldehyde-fuchsinophilic substance (and in this connection staining intensively). The data discussed concerns the transmission of neurosecretion through the cerebrospinal fluid; the active state of the cells in the ependymallining of the neurohypophysis (its proximal part) was especially emphasized.
