RESUMO
The development of the spleen in newborn male Wistar rats exposed to low-dose endocrine disruptor dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane during the prenatal period was studied. Histological examination of the spleen revealed a more active development of periarterial lymphoid sheaths and lower granulocyte content in the organ. Cytofluorimetry showed a significantly lower content of B cells. Thus, low-dose exposure of the endocrine disruptor dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane on the developing organism during the prenatal period induced changes in spleen morphogenesis resulting in extensive development of lymphoid formations and a lower intensity of lymphocyte and granulocyte differentiation.
