[The dynamic morphofunctional state of the adrenals in irradiated recipients following bone marrow transplantation]
Abstract:
The influence of syngenic bone marrow transplantation in the dose of 1.10(7) cell/ml upon the adrenal gland state of lethally irradiated recipients at various stages of posttransplantation period during 3 months has been studied at 150 linear F1 (CBA x C57B) male mice. Histological and histochemical studies conducted have shown the transplantation of native and cryopreserved bone marrow of the lethally irradiated recipients to result, depending upon observation time, in undulating change in adrenal gland weight, cortex thickness and lipid content in spongiocytes, which testifies to the certain dynamics of processes, occurring in recipients' adrenal gland.
