Morphological aspects of steroid hormone action on rat hepatocyte.
A morphological study was performed on the effect of HC treatment on normal and adrenalectomized rat liver. The observation of liver fragments shows that the hormone treatment can balance only partially the hormonal deficiency caused by ADX, resulting in particular changes of both hepatic architecture and fine ultrastructural organization.
