Morphometric changes in the endocrinocytes of the cortex and the medulla of the rats’ adrenal glands during the transplantation of cryopreserved placenta and at the aseptic peritonitis

Abstract

The aim of the research was the morphometric study of the endocrinocytes of the cortex and the medulla of the adrenal glands during the transplantation of cryopreserved placenta (CPP) and at the aseptic peritonitis (AP). During the transplantation of CPP the changes of glomerular zone occured at the expense of the increase of the endocrinocytes’ number on the 7th and the 10th days. Zona fasciculata responded with the increase of secretory activity from the 3rd to the 7th day with the simultaneous intensification of synthesis during all terms of the research. Secretory activity of the medulla increased from the 7th to the 10th days, whereas the synthesis intensified on the 3rd and the 14th day of observation. At the AP the number of endocrinocytes of glomerular zone varied from the 5th to the 14th day. Intensification of secretory activity of zona fasciculata lasted from the 5th to the 14th day, whereas synthesis increased on the 3rd and the 14th day of the study. The medulla reacted with the increase in a secretory activity on the 10th and the 14th days of the experiment at the intensification of synthetic activity from the 7th to the 10th day.
