Morphological and enzymological changes of small intestine of adult female rats and youngs born from madiol-treated pregnant rats.
Some histological and histoenzymological changes of the small intestine of adult female Wistar rats treated with Madiol were studied. The steroid did not influence the tissular aspect, but obviously stimulatory effects on protein and enzyme reactions were induced. Similar Madiol-action on the small intestine of 21-day-old young rats was observed when the steroid was administered during pregnancy to their mothers, suggesting influences on the embryonic development.
