Uncomfortable side-effects are often observed clinically in the cases of overdosed administration of estrogens as the functions of anterior pituitary were under the influences of estrogen.<BR>The purpose of this article is, therefore, to study histochemical changes of the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland after administration of various kinds of estrogens.<BR>Female, matured and non-parous rats and spayed rats were used as test-animals, and Estradiol benzoate, Estrone, Estrior, Ethinylestradiol, Hexron, Methallenestril and Chlorotrianisene of various con-centration were administered to the animals. Experimented histochemical methods are as follows ; cytol reaction (so called periodic acid-Schiff reaction), pyronin-methylgreen staining, Gomori's aldehyde-fuchsin staining, Gomori's alkaline phosphatase staining, Ohara's method for sulfhydryl and haematoxylin-eosin staining. Changes of weights of the pituitary, adrenal glands and ovaries were also followed.<BR>It could be concluded from the obtained results that : <BR>1) Continuous administration of estrogen of small doses stimulated the anterior pituitary function, while the large doses showed reverse effects.<BR>2) Potency of estrogenic effects could be ranked : Estradiol=Ethinylestradiol>Hexron, Chlorotrianisene>Estrone>Vallestril.<BR>3) Estriol which has been regarded as an estrogen-metabolite showed some mild stimulating effects on the anterior pituitary gland.<BR>4) Notable changes were observed in the basophilic cells of the anterior pituitary gland after the administration of estrogens.<BR>The PAS-positive substance in these cells might have certain relationships with the anterior pituitary function.
