Abstract: | Neurosecretory, parasympathetic and sympathetic centers of 49 mature fetuses subjected to toxicity were studied using light and electron microscopy. These centers were characterized by similar regularities of neurocytes development. Higher degree of maturity was typical for neurosecretory, while minimal for sympathetic centers. A higher degree of maturity and functional performance of vegetative regulatory system predominated in large fetuses. A general rule was a relative independence of forming truncal and spinal morphosystems and their nuclei on body and brain masses. Dyschronia of vegetative centers development reduces an adaptive potential of the fetus and causes fatal outcome in intranatal period. |
