Monoaminergic Control of the Neuroendocrine System

  • Chapter
Neuroregulation of Autonomic, Endocrine and Immune Systems

Part of the book series: Topics in the Neurosciences ((TNSC,volume 2))

Abstract

In summary, some of the possible interneuronal connections that participate in the regulation of prolactin release are diagrammed in Figure 3. This is only part of the total picture, however, because more factors than those listed here are known to influence prolactin release.
