title: [Morphofunctional changes in the small intestinal mucosa in dynamics of physiological pregnancy and lactation].
abstract: Histostructural changes of small intestine mucosa of intact, pregnant and lactating rats were studied by optic and electron microscopy and morphometry. Increase of mucosa thickness, vili height, crypt depth, quantity of enterocytes and crypts were studied in dynamics of pregnancy. Period of lactation that followed labour was characterized by opposite processes, i.e. decrease of above mentioned parameters, which became identical to that in control animals.
