This volume on the evolutionary aspects of neuro-endocrinology is
based on contributions from the 7th International Symposium on
Neurosecretion, which took place in Leningrad, on August 15-21,
1976. The book deals with three major approaches in elucidating the
general evolutionary events responsible for the structure and
function of neurosecretory elements: (1) phylogenetic development
of neurosecretory elements and their function, (2) ontogenetic
development of neurosecretory elements and their function, and (3)
the role of neuroendocrine mechanisms in realizing species
adaptation, i.e., mechanisms causing the evolutionary process. Half
of the chapters deal with evolutionary aspects. The majority of
them are concerned with the role of different types of
neurosecretory cells in the regulation of homeostasis and of the
function of endocrine glands, primarily that of the
adenohypophysis. The other half are concerned with various aspects
of neurosecretion, featuring two main problems: (1) investigation
of neural and hormonal mechanisms regulating the function of
neurosecretory cells and neurosecretory centers as a whole, and (2)
investigation of the role of neurosecretory systems in the
regulation of adaptive reactions of the organism.
