摘要: Neural processes from mammalian pinealocytes have been discovered in several brain areas. These were visualized immunocytochemically the Djungarian hamster, Phodopus sungorus, with an antiserum against bovine retinal S-antigen and traced as far region of posterior commissure habenular nuclei. This result indicates that pineal-to-brain connections exist mammal, pineal gland, currently thought only a neuroendocrine organ, may communicate directly select regions by way these projections. The existence pinealocyte projections is consistent view cells are not glial origin but derivatives photoreceptor complex lower vertebrates transmit signals to neural
