Abstract
Morphogenesis of the thyroid was compared in young of control and protein-deprived rats from day 17 of gestation through the first postpartum day. Examination of histological sections revealed a significant delay in follicle formation and a reduction in gland area, follicle number, colloid space and cell size in the thyroid tissue of fetal and neonatal pups of protein-deprived dams.Entities:
