Effects of castration or testosterone implants upon pituitary function in hypogonadal mice bearing normal foetal preoptic area grafts.

abstract：:The pineal gland in the rat exhibits a diurnal rhythm in activity of the enzyme serotonin N-acetyltransferase (N-AT) with peak values during the dark period of a diurnal lighting schedule approximately 100-fold those during the light period. After blinding the rhythm becomes free-running. It is abolished by partial hy...
