The Regulatory Centers of Endocrine Glands in the Hypothalamus

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Perspectives in Neuroendocrine Research ((PNR,volume 1))

Abstract

In a speech to the Royal and Imperial Society of Physicians in Vienna in 1912 Bernhard Aschner closed with the following words:

Not only hypophysectomy, but even a mere wound in the base of the thalamencephalon leads to atrophy of the gonads in male and female dogs. The extent to which the hypothalamus can be regarded as a regulatory center for endocrine glands must therefore be decided after further research has been carried out.
