    Notes: Summary In frontal and tangential paraffin sections through the sensory-motor cortex of the rabbit, vertical bundles of dendrites have been found. Each bundle consists of several apical dendrites of layer V pyramids and extends through layer IV into layer III/II where the dendrites begin to ramify. Electron microscopy reveals that within the bundle some of the dendrites approach each other so closely as to be separated by the extracellular space only. A vertical bundling of dendrites has, also been found in various regions of the sensory-motor cortex of the cat. — The hypothesis is put forward that the vertical bundles of dendrites are the morphological substrate of the vertical functional units deduced from electrophysiological observations.

    Notes: Summary The vascular surface of the external layer of the median eminence is composed of neuronal and glial processes. Neuro-vascular contacts are supposed to be necessary for the release of hypophysiotropic neurohormones. The present study confirms the hypothesis that the relative extent of neuro-vascular and glio-vascular contacts varies under different functional conditions of the tubero-hypophysial system. Morphometric analysis shows that in normal rats about 20% of the surface is lined by neuro-vascular contacts. After bilateral adrenalectomy the neuro-vascular contacts are enlarged to 40% whereas application of an extract of stalk-median eminence tissue is followed by a decrease of the neuro-vascular contacts to 15%. The implications of these results are discussed.

    Notes: Summary The posterior lobe of the hypophysis consists of neurosecretory nerve fibres and glial cells, both abutting on the perivascular space of sinusoidal capillaries. Nerve fiberes and glial cells are connected with each other by a high number of synaptoid contacts. Several ultrastructural changes following dehydration have been described by other authors. This study presents the data of some morphometric investigations on normal and dehydrated rats. The relative extent of neuro-vascular contacts is not contstant; it increases significantly from 52 (±2.8)% in normal rats to 67(±1.2)% in rats with a dehydration time of 3 days. Correspondingly the extent of glio-vascular contacts is diminished. In addition, water-deprived animals show a clear increase in the number of neuro-glial synaptoid contacts with 3.1 (±0.4) per square unit nervous tissue compared to 2.1 (±0.3) per Square unit in untreated controls. These results indicate a dynamic motility of neuronal and glial elements depending on functional conditions, as was found for the external layer of the median eminence. Furthermore there seems to be a relationship between secretory activity and the number of neuroglial synaptoid contacts.
