FURTHER OBSERVATIONS ON THE ADRENAL SECRETORY RHYTHM OF THE BROWN LEMMING
ABSTRACT Isolated lemming adrenals display daily rhythms which persist for at least five days when the glands are maintained in organ culture. Rhythmic corticosteroid secretion in vitro shows a »free running« period of less than 24 hours (23.4 ± 0.2 hours). When the intervals of animal sacrifice in...
