Abstract
IN previous experiments we were able to determine how extracts from the posterior lobe of the hypophysis affect the course of experimental inflammation1; moreover, we directed attention to the mechanism combined with it2. Since we assumed that these compounds could play an active part in the excretion mechanism of some ions, we investigated especially the excretion of radiophosphorus in the urine. It is a well-known fact that a single administration of methionine sulphoximine to rats causes destruction of the neurosecretory nucleus (nucleus supraopticus) in the hypothalamus3.
