Thyroid gland: test-point method of morphometric analysis in experimental atherosclerosis

A Don, S Nagai

The functional morphology of the thyroid gland has been studied in the  experiment  with  cholesterol  atherosclerosis  modeling  in  rabbits.  The experimental period was 30, 60 and 90 days. It was established that on the 30th day  of  the  experiment  the  morphofunctional  activity  of  the  thyroid  gland increased.  Further  on,  from  the  60th  day  to  the  90th  day  of  the  experiment there was a decrease. The revealed phasic changes of the thyroid gland were interpreted as a compensatory reaction to the development of atherosclerosis.
