Human subcommissural organ, with particular emphasis on its secretory activity during the fetal life

1 Jan 2001

Abstract excerpt

The subcommissural organ (SCO) is a conserved brain gland present throughout the vertebrate phylum. During ontogeny, it is the first secretory structure of the brain to differentiate. In the human, the SCO can be morphologically distinguished in 7- to 8-week-old embryos. The SCO of 3- to 5-month-old fetuses is an active, secretory structure of the brain. However, already in 9-month-old fetuses, the regressive...
