Infundibular localization of vasopressin, oxytocin and neurophysins in the rat; its relationships with corticotrope function.

The distribution of vasopressin (VP), oxytocin (OXY) and neurophysins 1 and 2 (N1, N2) has been studied in the median eminence (ME) of normal, heterozygous (HDI) and Brattleboro (DI) rats. Numerous thin periportal VP and N2 fibres exist in the normal and HD1 rats; they have never been observed in the DI rats. N1 and OXY fibres in the external layer of the median eminence are rare. Adrenalectomy increases periportal VP and N2 loading in normal and HDI rats; it does not modify the appearance of the DI median eminence. Dexamethasone prevents external VP and N2 overloading in adrenalectomized rats injected during the whole postoperative period. Injections of vasopressin indicated that it had a negative feedback effect during a short time (3 days) but not during a longer period (7 days). The suprachiasmatic neurons are stained only by anti-VP and anti-N2 antibodies. Their overstaining induced by adrenalectomy disappears with dexamethasone, aldosterone or vasopressin treatment. This central effect of hormones is not necessarily associated with disappearance of overloading in the external layer of the ME. The hypothalamo-infundibular tract carrying VP and N2 is involved in regulatory mechanisms of the corticotrope axis. Its relationships with suprachiasmatic neurons are discussed.

Evidence of vasopressin in adenohypophysis: research into its role in corticotrope activity.

The presence of vasopressin (VP) in pars distalis of rats and pigs was investigated. Using radioimmunoassay and bioassay of VP, a substance with immunological and biological properties of this hormone was found. This substance was not detected in the adenohypophysis of rats with diabetes insipidus. A partial purification of the VP-like peptide showed that it had the chromatographic and electrophoretic properties of VP. It could be identified with arginine vasopressin (AVP) in the case of the rat and lysine-vasopressin (LVP) in the case of the pig. In the Wistar strain, adrenalectomy induced progressively increasing concentrations of adenohypophysial VP. This increase was significant 15 days after surgery. It could be prevented by treatment with dexamethasone. These results indicate that the presence of VP in the anterior pituitary is related to the regulation of ACTH secretion.

[Surgico-orthodontic recovery of horizontal impacted second and third lower molars (author's transl)].

In 6 cases of horizontal impacted second molars seen between 1951 and 1961, the authors were able to remove or ensure removal of the gum overlying the crowns of these teeth, to make a small transverse horizontal hole below the mesial neck, and straighten them in an average period of 5 months with the use of an auxiliary spring on a plate or better on a vestibular arch (figs 5 and 6). The constant success of this method led them to use if for impacted lower wisdom teeth, even when almost horizontal (figs 1, 2, 3, 4) in patients aged between 17 and 20 years, avoiding their removal.
