. The effects of inanition and malnutrition upon growth and structure . Fig. 116.—A small portion of the pars anterior of an albino rat (S. ) held at constant body weight by underfeeding from 3 to 10 weeks of age. The effect of the inanition is striking, resulting in hyperemia and atrophy of the parenchyma. The cytoplasm is decreased in amount, sparsely granular, and filled with coarse vacuoles which sometimes coalesce to form irregular spaces. The nuclei are hyperchromatic, in various stages of pycnosis. X760. Technique, etc. as in Fig. 115; compare also Fig. 117. (Jackson '17.)
