A quantitative evaluation of the reactive and dystrophic changes in the cerebellar cortex of mice during malnutrition and subsequent food rehabilitation]

Neurones with chromatolysis, hyperchromatism and numerous nucleus have been counted of the paraffin cerebellar cortex sections coloured with kresil-violet and metil-green pironin. The alimentary deficiency has been shown to result in increase of cell number with chromatolysis and hyperchromatism and decrease of the number of numerous nucleus. The food rehabilitation doesn't take off completely damages caused by malnutrition. The use of carnitine leads to the complete rehabilitation that is due to the normalization of protein metabolism in cerebellum.
