چکیده

Ultrastructural changes of the parathyroid glands of pinealectomized golden hamsters were investigated. The main changes in the parathyroid glands 1 hour and 1 day after pinealectomy compared with the control and sham-operated groups were an increase of the Golgi complexes, cisternae of the granular endoplasmic reticulum and large vacuolar bodies. In addition, many chief cells contained numerous prosecretory granules in the Golgi areas and many secretory granules in the peripheral cytoplasm. The morphology of the parathyroid glands 7 and 30 days after pinealectomy resembled that of the control parathyroid glands. These results suggest that pinealectomy affects the secretory activity of the parathyroid gland.

Acute effects of caffeine administration on the ultrastructure of the golden hamster parathyroid gland.

This study was conducted to evaluate the acute effects of caffeine on the ultrastructure of the parathyroid glands in golden hamsters. Caffeine was given orally at either 2.5 mg (low dose) or 10 mg (high dose) per 100 g body weight. Caffeine caused a dose dependent decrease of the serum calcium level 2 hours after administration. Transmission electron microscopy of the parathyroid gland reveale...

Effects of long-term treatment with ethanol on the ultrastructure of the golden hamster parathyroid gland.

The ultrastructure of the parathyroid gland in golden hamsters after long-term treatment with ethanol was studied. Male hamsters of experimental groups were given ethanol at the concentration of 7% for 3 and 5 months with food and water freely available. In the ethanol-treated hamsters, the Golgi complexes associated with many prosecretory granules were well developed and many secretory granule...

Effect of immobilization on the ultrastructure of the golden hamster parathyroid gland.

To investigate the morphological changes of the parathyroid gland of the immobilized hamsters, we studied the ultrastructure of the parathyroid gland of golden hamsters kept in special small cage (Ballman cage II). All hamsters of the control group were kept in one ordinary cage. Each hamster of the isolated group was kept in ordinary cage individually. Each hamster of the immobilized group was...

Ultrastructure of the parathyroid gland of the young golden hamster after short-term treatment with ethanol.

We studied the ultrastructure of the parathyroid gland of young golden hamsters after short-term treatment with ethanol (1.5 g/kg bw or 6.0 g/kg bw). We did not find any ultrastructural changes of the parathyroid gland after administration of 1.5 g/kg ethanol. In the hamsters, 3 hours after administration of 6.0 g/kg ethanol, the mean serum calcium concentration was significantly low as compare...

Effects of progesterone on the ultrastructure of the golden hamster parathyroid gland.

The ultrastructure of the parathyroid glands in golden hamsters after administration of progesterone was investigated. In the parathyroid glands of the female hamsters after administration of progesterone, the mean serum calcium concentration was significantly higher when compared to that of the control hamsters. In the male experimental hamsters, the percentage area occupied by Golgi complexes...
