[Biometric characteristics of renal corpuscles in reduced adrenal function and individually dosed physical loading].

In 19 mongrel dogs (males) the effect of various doses of physical loading on the nephric body structure was studied at a decreased content of glucocorticoids in blood. Six dogs were used as controls. Glucocorticoid function of the adrenals was set off by means of intramuscular injection of orthoparadichlor-diphenildichlorethane oil solution (25 mg/kg of the body weight). It was stated histologically and morphometrically that under inhibition of the adrenal glucocorticoid function, an optimal physical loading contributed to normalization of the nephric body structure.
