title: [Morphological characteristics of steroid-producing glands in alimentary obesity].
abstract: The influence of alimentary obesity on the functional morphology of the adrenal cortex and glandulocytes of the testis was studied in male Wistar rats with an initial weight of 60--70 g. Analysis of some of histochemical parameters during obesity showed the disturbance of the operating mode of adrenocorticocytes and glandulocytes which manifested by changes in the activity of 3 beta-ol-dehydrogenase, glucoso-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and NADP.H-diaphorases. It was also found that obese rats had the increased adrenoglucocorticoid activity.
