Title: Morphometric investigations on endocrine glands. IV. The rat thyroid during liver regeneration after partial hepatectomy with and without application of carcinogenic substances. Author: Löw O, Richter S, Franke I, Danz M. Journal: Exp Pathol (Jena); 1978; 16(1-6):234-44. PubMed ID: 720447. Abstract: Morphometric studies and counting of mitoses in thyroids during regeneration after partial hepatectomy had the following results: 1. During the first days after surgical operation laparotomy caused only a slight reduction of the thyroid function. 2. Up to the 3rd day and especially on the 10th day after partial hepatectomy there is a higher relative percentage of the epithelium in the thyroid, but the mitoses are diminished. 3. Prefeeding with methylnitrosourea and acetylaminofluorene before the surgical 2/3 removal of the liver was answered with subactive thyroids on the 3rd day.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
