Pituitary Histology - Neurohypophysis
Stain - PAAB / Periodic acid-Schiff / Orange G Neurohypophysis (posterior pituitary)
- cells are pituicytes and also present are hypothalamic neurosecretory cell unmyelinated nerve fibres (from the supraoptic and paraventricular nuclei).
- pituicyte oval or round nuclei are visible.
- Herring bodies are dilations of nerve fibres filled with small neurosecretory vesicles.
- nerve fibres terminate close to capillaries.
- hormones are releasing and release-inhibiting factors produced regulating adenohypophysis activity (as well as 2 other 9 aa hormones).
- Oxytocin - pregnancy stimulates uterine smooth muscle the contraction and lactation milk ejection reflex.
- Antidiuretic hormone - (ADH, vasopressin, arginine vasopressin, AVP) acts on kidneys to concentrate urine (water retention).
Identify nuclei of pituicytes and Herring bodies.
