DENSITY AND MORPHOMETRY OF MYENTERIC NEURONS OF THE ILEUM OF RATS SUBJECTED TO CHRONIC ALCOHOLISM

This work verified the changes caused by ethanol ingestion on the myenteric neurons of the ileum of rats subjected to chronic alcoholism. Twenty rats (Rattus norvegicus) were divided in control (GC) and alcoholic (GA) groups during 210 days. The animals from group GA received sugar-cane brandy dilut...
