In one of the most-widely used species in pineal gland research, the strongly photoperiodic golden hamster, Mesocricetus auratus, no electrophysiological data on pinealocytes are currently available. To fill this gap, in the present study 185 spontaneously active pinealocytes from male golden hamste

## Abstract The effects of blinding on cellular structure and porphyrin pigment content were studied in Harderian glands of pinealectomized and nonβpinealectomized adult female golden hamsters. Uterine weights were used as a criterion for pineal activity. Five weeks postβoperatively, no significant
The present article reviews the literature relative to VIP-and PHI-containing nerve fibers in the pineal gland of mammals. The article summarizes data on the presence and distribution of the two peptides in the brain of mammals, their role in neuronal metabolism, and the significance and origin of V
