Abstract

In the pituitary of an Amphibian (Urodela), various cell types were localized by cytoimmunological techniques: corticotrophs located in a rostral zone near the median eminence, ventral orangeophilic cells secreting a prolactin-like hormone and erythrosinophilic cells in a more dorso-caudal situation secreting growth hormone. Alpha-MSH and beta-MSH produceng cell were identified in the intermediate lobe; these cells were also labelled with antibodies against 1-24 ACTH and 17-39 ACTH. These data are in accordance with results obtained after an experimental study of the prolactin cells.
