Studies on the transport of secretory granules in the magnocellular hypothalamic neurons of the rat
Intrathecal administration of 20 μg of vincristine sulphate in the rat induced in vivo the formation of paracrystalline inclusions mainly in axonal processes. This is associated with an impairment in the migra...

Centrioles and cilia multiplication in the pituitary of the rat after furosemid and colchicine treatment
In adult rats, dehydration produced by the injection of Furosemid (Lasix®) induces the formation of new centrioles in the endothelial cells of the posterior lobe of the hypophysis.

Studies on the transport of secretory granules in the magnocellular hypothalamic neurons
The axonal flow of neurosecretory elementary granules has been studied in the paraventricular neurons of the rat (PVN), with the help of three techniques: light microscopy, radioautography after labelling with 35
