Abstract

Placement of electrolytic lesions in the septal area (S.A.) in chickens caused a marked increase in food intake which was not accompanied by development of obesity. Oxygen consumption of the S.A. lesioned birds was significantly higher than that of the controls. Alcianophylic-thyrotropic cell population of the adenohypophysis and percentage of active follicles in the thyroid gland were higher for the S.A. lesioned birds than for those of the control birds. The S.A. lesions caused also an increase in the somatotropic activity. The possibility that the previously found suppression effect of the olfactory bulbs on the thyrotropic and somatotropic activities in the intact chicken is mediated via the S.A., is discussed.
