Abstract
The pituitary of genetically diabetic Chinese hamsters contains significantly (p<0.001) greater numbers of somatotrophes than pituitary of nondiabetics. This may play a role in the aetiopathology of diabetes in this species or at least contribute to the maintenance of hyperglycaemia.Keywords
