Zusammenfassung:Summary Treatment of rats having adrenal-regeneration hypertension with propylthiouracil, results in decrease in body and tissue weights and marked lowering of hypertensive blood levels. This treatment also results in shrinking of width of the fasciculata zone in regenerated adrenal gland and a marked change in pituitary basophils. An increase in basophils of the pituitary has also been found in control rats with adrenal-regeneration hypertension.
