EFFECT OF DESALIVATION ON ADRENALS, UTERUS, AND TESTES IN THE RAT

DAVID BIXLER 1, JOSEPH C. MUHLER 1, and WILLIAM G. SHAFER 1

1 Department of Chemistry, Indiana University, Bloomington and Indianapolis, Ind.

Desalivated male rats showed changes in the adrenal glands consisting of a widening of the zona glomerulosa. This appeared to be principally due to the presence in this layer of large lipoid-filled cells resembling those in the zona fasciculata. The female desalinated rats showed similar but less-pronounced changes. Under ad libitum feeding conditions, desalivation resulted in adrenal weight changes in the females which did not occur in a pair-feeding experiment. The testes were not significantly altered under pair-feeding conditions, although the uteri of desalivated animals significantly increased in size in both cases.
