[Histologic and karyometric changes in thyroid C cells of male golden hamsters during the annual cycle].
The thyroid C cells of the male golden Hamster present morphological modifications related to variations of activity during the year: the nuclear volume undergoes two reduction phases, one in autumn and the other in May. On the other hand at the beginning of winter there is a clear hypertrophy of the nucleus.
