title: [Effect of methandrostenolone on liver morphology and enzymatic activity].
abstract: The action of different doses and time of metandrostenolone administration on liver morphology and activity of the enzymes of blood serum, liver and pancreatic tissue was studied in experiments on male rats. It was established that metandrostenolone regardless of its dose and time of administration produces changes in enzymatic activity and in morphological characteristics, manifesting in hypertrophy of hepatocytes in modification of the cell size of the reticuloendothelium as well as in the magnitude and amount of nucleoli in the nucleus. The changes also involve impaired rhythmicity of RNA and glycogen synthesis by the liver.
