Age-related structural characteristics of the adrenal medulla in hypertensive NISAG rats

Structural characteristics of the adrenal medulla in hypertensive NISAG rats (hereditary stress-induced arterial hypertension) were studied during various periods of postnatal ontogeny. Signs of hyperplasia of the adrenal medulla were most pronounced in adult hypertensive animals with persistent arterial hypertension, as well as during the period of late ontogeny.
