Focal ischemia in the cerebral cortex has an effect on the neurohypophysis. II. Angiogenesis in the neurohypophysis is a consequence of the focal ischemia in the cerebral cortex.

OBJECTIVES: Focal ischemia in the cerebral cortex has an effect on neurohypophysis. The morphological changes of microvessels of neurohypophysis were evaluated in a model of the cerebral infarction initiated by a photochemical reaction in the cerebral cortex. After photochemically induced platelet aggregation, we observed the morphologi.....
