Abstract

The jejunum was resected in male cats. Changes in the structure of the exocrine and endocrine parts of the organ were studied in histological preparations. Amylase and lipase activity and the sugar concentration were determined in the animals' blood. Hypertrophy and hyperplasia were found in the acrinar part of the gland during 1–14 days of the experiment and in the endocrine part during 7–30 days. On the 21 st and 30th days of the experiment some decrease was observed in the dimensions of the acinar cells and nuclei, and on the 180th day the endocrine cells were reduced in size. The function of the exocrine part of the pancreas was disturbed for 2–21 days of the experiment, but that of the endocrine part was disturbed only on the 7th day, after which it returned to normal.
