Age-related changes of the nucleolar organizer regions without neuron loss in medial mamillary bodies (hypothalamus) in old rats

Age-related morphological and functional changes were studied in the medial mamillary nuclei of the hypothalamus (MMN). The number of nerve cells and the volume of MMN were estimated in both groups of Wistar rats, adult and old (3 and 22 months, respectively) using stereologic methods such as the op...
