We investigated the effect of protein deprivation and refeeding on weight gain, the size of the
colon, and the numbers and sizes of enteric neurons. Neurons were located by reduced …

The objective of this study was to analyze the morpho quantitative behaviour of duodenum
myenteric neurons of Wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus), aged 21, 60, 90, 210, 345 and 428 …

This paper aims to verify the effects of severe protein malnutrition over the intestinal
ascending colon morphometrics in adult rats. 12 rats (90 days old) were divided into 2 …

Protein energy malnutrition (PEM) is a potentially catastrophic disorder. PEM is significant,
nevertheless underestimated for infection susceptibility due to perturbances in gut flora and …

We carried out this work with the purpose of studying the effects of protein and vitamin B
deficiency on the morphologic and quantitative aspects of the myenteric plexus of the …

Morphometric and quantitative analyses were carried out on the myenteric neurons of the
duodenum, to study possible alterations resulting from a supply of low-protein level chow to …

The objective of this work was to analyze the morphoquantitative behavior of neurons of the
myenteric plexus, as well as the morphometry of elements of the proximal colon wall of …

The effect of the supply to adult rats of a diet of 8% protein for 120 days was assessed;
liveweight gain, blood total protein, albumin and globulin content, and thickness of the wall …

The purpose of this work was to analyze the morphoquantitative behavior of the neurons of
the myenteric plexus, as well as the morphometry of the duodenal wall, in adult rats fed with …

We investigated weight gain, the size of the small intestine and numbers and sizes of enteric
neurons in rats whose mothers had been deprived of protein during pregnancy and who …
