[Compensatory-restorative processes of the thyroid gland in 1- and 3-month-old rats in health and in desympathization].
In 172 white male rats 1- and 3-month-old, using electron microscopical, autoradiographical, morphometrical and radioimmunological methods, analysis of structural-functional changes of the thyroid gland has been carried out both under normal conditions and at guanethidine desympathization (15 mg/kg for 14 days after birth). Resection of 2/3 of the organ has been performed on the 3d, 5th, 7th and 15th days before sacrifice. In the 1-month-old desympathized rats hypofunctional state of the gland is observed. By the 3d month at the expense of an increased production of thyrotropin and calcitonin the thyroid status becomes normal. The dynamics of the restorative processes in the thyroid gland after resection of 1/3 of the organ in the control and test rats occurs with a similar intensity. Proliferative potency of the desympathized thyroid tissue is much higher.
