Overcrowding as a chronic source of stress constituted a major threat to psychological well-being. Dense populations were characterized by considerably increased aggressive behavior . The present study aimed to examine the effect of overcrowding stress on the histology of fundus and fundic glands of male albino rats .Ten animals were used in this s...

... cells that lined the base showed basal basophilia, apical acidophilic cytoplasm and basal nuclei. The lamina propria of the stomach was composed of loose connective tissues interspersed between gastric glands together with connective tissue cells and smooth muscle fibers that separated the mucosa from the underlying submucosa. All the layers of stomach were affected in rats exposed to overcrowding stress conditions. In muscularis the muscle fibers were disintegrated as shown in ( Fig. 2) in comparison to that of control rats (Fig. 1). Abnormal numbers of blood vessels as well as congested blood vessels were recorded in submucosa (Fig. 3 and 4). Many histological changes were recorded in mucosa began from congestion in mucosa in addition to abnormal fundic glands in mucosa as shown in (Fig. 5).The effect increased and atrophy of mucosal glands was recoded (Fig. 5 and 6) . The blood vessels in different layers of fundus were congested as well as mononuclear cellular infiltration could be seen within the lamina propria (Fig. 6). The fundic mucosa of animals showed areas of discontinuity of surface mucosa and other areas of erosion at pits of the mucosa. There was distortion of normal architecture of fundic glands with invasion by mononuclear cells (Fig. 7). Moreover, the mucosa showed ulceration of the surface and vacuolation of some parietal cells (Fig. 8). Necrosis in mucosa (Fig. 8) was the prominent histological change when the effect reached the ...

Lead (Pb) is a non-essential, highly toxic, and persistent element widely recognized as one of the most concerning pollutants. It is listed on the Priority List of Hazardous Substances. Widespread environmental contamination from Pb is a serious issue for human health and wildlife. In fish, Pb mainly accumulates in the liver, which is a key compone...

Background: Although the stress response can enhance the probability of survival in the face of true environmental threats, repeated activation in response to frequent or chronic stress can have serious pathological sequelae. Objective: This work was carried out to investigate the effect of crowding or noise stresses on some biochemical parameters and histological structure of the liver and kidney tissues of adult male albino rats after one month from chronic exposure to these environmental stressors. Material and Methods: Crowding was induced by multiplying the normal density by three. Noise was prepared by using 5 different sources of no harmonic sounds and high intensity music. Animals were divided into three equal groups: • Control group. • Rats exposed to noise for 30 days (over 90db, 4h/day). • Rats exposed to crowding for 30 days.
