Abstract:
The distribution of the ACTH_(1-39)-immunoreactive neurons in the hypotha- lamus of 4 human adults was examined with ABC immunocytochemical method. The results showed that in addition to ACTH_(1-39)-immunoreactive neurons found in the infundibular nucleus of the hypothalamus which were identical with the previous reports, negafivt ACTH_(1-39)immunoreactive neurons were also found in paraventricular and supraoptic nuclei. These cell bodies were round or elliptic in shape. More negative ACTH_(1-39)immunoreactive fibers were seen in the periventricular layer, paraventricular nucleus and dorsal area of supraoptic nucleus.
