THE PRESENCE OF NON-MYELINATED NERVE FIBRES IN THE PARS DISTALIS OF THE PITUITARY GLAND OF THE FERRET

R. N. SMITH

The innervation of the ferret's pituitary gland has been studied by means of a modification of Ranson's pyridine-silver technique.

Non-myelinated nerve fibres of characteristic appearance are present in the pars distalis. The number of these fibres is small, but their paucity may be accounted for by the varying depth of impregnation achieved. Structures resembling end-organs within the pars distalis are also described.
