title: [Effect of chronic alcohol administration on the adrenals thyroid, pancreatic islands and liver of male albino rats].
abstract: In response to chronic oral ethanol administration, the adrenals, thyroid glands, pancreatic islets, and livers of male white rats show histological and chemomorphological reactions. Cytological, karyometrical, and histochemical findings from adrenal medulla indicate increased secretion and synthesis of catecholamines. Adrenal cortex shows morphokinetic changes within the meaning of progressive transformation. About 1 h after the last ethanol administration, there are no signs of inappropriate insulin secretion in the B-cells of pancreatic islets. In addition to a small lipid storage and a marked decrease of glycogen contents, the hepatocytes show karyometrical sign of an increased cell metabolism.
