A portal vessel collect blood from capillaries in the median eminence and carry it to the adenohypophysis (neuro-vascular pituitary control) b. Many neurohypophysal/hypothalamic axonal extensions penetrate the adenohypophysis and either directly innervate the adenohypophysal cells or ends near these cells allowing the local diffusion of neurosecretions (neuroglandular pituitary control) c.
