Morphofunctional Characteristics of Liver Tissue of White Rats

Abstract

Liver morphogenesis of white-bred rats during prenatal development has regularly changing stages of human-like organ formation. Despite the large mass of the liver in rats, the presence of many liver lobes and the absence of a gall bladder, the microscopic structure of the rat liver and the cytophysiological characteristics of human hepatocytes are not fundamentally different. Taking this into account, it is considered convenient to carry out many experimental experiments on non-white rats.
