โœฆ Synopsis

The mammalian anterior pituitary was not known to be innervated other than by a few autonomic nerve fibers. Recent studies, however, have demonstrated otherwise. A hypothesis of neural-humoral dual regulation of the mammalian anterior pituitary has been postulated based on the following findings: (1) the presence of substantial amounts of nerve fibers in the anterior pituitary of a number of mammalian species; (2) close contact of the nerve fibers with the gland cells, even forming synapses; (3) the nerve fibers originate, as least partly, from the hypothalamus; (4) the nerve fibers respond actively to changes in hormonal levels of the organism; and (5) stimulation of the nerve fibers changes the secretory activities of the gland cells.

## Synopsis The specific secondary structure of a number of polypeptide hormones of the pituitary gland anterior lobe and their fragments were studied by CD in the peptide bond absorption region and by ir spectroscopy. The state of objects was examined in solvents of different polarity over a wide
