Abstract

The distribution of somatostatin was studied in the rat with an immunoperoxidase technique and rabbit anti-somatostatin. Somatostatinergic neurons were identified in the preoptic and anterior periventricular hypothalamus between the anterior commissure, optic chiasm, and the anterior portion of the ventromedial nucleus.
