The hypothalamo-hypophyseal tract connects the posterior pituitary and hypothalamus via axons of hypothalamic neurons that terminate in the posterior pituitary, where hormones are stored and released.
Το υποθάλαμο-υπόφυση tract είναι μια σύνδεση μεταξύ της οπίσθιας υπόφυσης και του υποθαλάμου, που σχηματίζεται από άξονες νευρώνων που τερματίζονται στην οπίσθια υπόφυση όπου αποθηκεύονται οι υποθάλαμοι ορμόνες.
