TL;DR
The hippocampus is a most favourable structure for an investigation of the action potentials of neurones by extracellular recording, and the correlation between structure and response can be made more certain and more detailed than in a less sharply differentiated tissue.

In infants studied in the first month of life there was a gradual development of the ability to excrete excess water in a short period of time and the hormone was detectable in the urines of infants under 3 days of age after fluid deprivation, assumed to be evidence of a functioning neurohypophysis.

Whatever the mechanisms involved, the response of the adult kidney to a large dose of water has three characteristics: a great increase in the flow of urine; an extensive fall in its osmolar concentration; and the excretion of a volume of urine within a few hours and before theflow of urine subsides.

Analysis of the effects of dehydration and rehydration in adults forms the necessary basis for such studies, but it would clearly be a serious mistake to ignore the effect of water depletion and salt depletion in adults.

Preliminary tests revealed fibre connexions in this ganglion of greater complexity than the authors had suspected, and transmission phenomena which distinguished it in some respects from those previously studied.

The work now to be reported was undertaken to study the effects of hypertonic solutions upon dehydrated adult animals, and to compare the results with that of treating newborn animals in a similar way.

The antidiuretic hormone content of newborn rat pituitary glands has been shown to be much lower than that of the glands of adult animals, suggesting the possibility of neurohypophysial hypofunction in relation to the kidney of the newborn.

The kidney of the guinea-pig, which, in this respect, has so far been neglected, was investigated and the results suggested further analysis of renal function by means of clearance estimations.

If chloride or sulphate or any other strong non-volatile anion is introduced into the body, unaccompanied by an equivalent amount of fixed base, hydrogen ions become associated with the anions and the status quo can only be restored by the excretion of the hydrogen ions and also the Cl or 804 ions.
