Abstract
Distribution of serotonin nerve fibers in the hypothalamus of the cat was studied using the peroxidase antiperoxidase (PAP) immunohistochemical method. There was a heavy concentration of serotonin nerve fibers in the nucleus suprachiasmaticus, the nucleus ventromedialis and the nucleus dorsomedialis. The distribution pattern of the serotonergic fibers in the cat was principally similar to that of the rat and monkey. However, species differences were noted in the mamillary complex, the nucleus hypothalamicus anterior, the nucleus paraventricularis and the nucleus supraopticus.
