[Peripheral blood lymphocytes in female mice during successive phases of the sexual cycle].
The authors determined the lymphocyte count, nucleo-cytoplasmic ratio, nuclear diameter, and the number of nucleoli and their morphology in peripheral blood of female mice. The results indicate that lymphocyte count remains unchanged during the sexual cycle but changes occur in the nucleocytoplasmic ratio, nuclear diameter, the number and morphology of lymphocyte nucleoli and are synchronized with the cycle. The observations suggest that changes in the maturity and activity of lymphocytes depend on the phase of the sexual cycle.
