Histochemical and ultrastructural modifications of mice endometrium, vagina and pituitary following zeranol treatment

The histochemical and ultrastructural changes produced by zeranol treatment on the endometrium and the gonadotropic FSH cells of the adenohypophysis have been investigated in mice at the prepuberal and virginal stages. Modifications similar to those induced by estrogen treatment were observed. It is concluded that both estrogens and zeranol share the same activity on the tissues examined.
