Abstract
SOME endocrine glands seem to influence the development and organization of neural regions which in turn control them. Thus thyroxine treatment greatly enhances the development of the median eminence in the tadpole1, and androgens organize the “male” quality of hypothalamic control of gonadotropin secretion in the mouse and rat2–4.
