Abstract

Evidence has accumulated that peptides influence behavior by acting on various structures in the brain. Peptides derived from the anterior pituitary (ACTH, growth hormone), the intermediate lobe (α-MSH), and the posterior lobe (vasopressin) of the pituitary have been shown to modulate conditioned behavior (DE WIED, 1969). Angiotensin II, a peptide derived from α-2 globulin, is involved in the control of drinking behavior (FITZSIMONS, 1970) and scotophobin, a peptide extracted from the brain, has been claimed to carry specific information (UNGAR et al., 1968).
