The morphological alterations caused by
anabolic steroicls (oestradiol and trenbolone acetate) 011
the Sertoli cells of testicles in animals for human
consumption (lambs and calves) were studied.
The morphopathological study of the treated lambs
revealcd delayed devcloptnent of thc scminiferous
tubules, which was marked by signs of immaturity and
even degeneration of Sertoli cells.
The tnain n~orphopathological alterations affecting
the Sertoli cells in calves occurred as hyperfunction
symptoms marked by increascd nuclei and smooth
endoplasmic reticulum.
