![]() ![]() Giemsa-stained neurons were 17.02% more concentrated in the EG (p>0.05). Moreover, the organ was 41% lighter for the EG. Animals from the EG presented a 41.75% body weight loss in relation to the CG as well as 17.6% length reduction for the ileum-jejunum. The ileum was submitted to Giemsa, NADH- and NADPH-diaphorase technique in order to evidence nervous cells in the whole-mount preparations. ![]() At the end of the experiment, the animals from the CG weighed 369.63☒6.33, and the ones from the EG 215.34±56.31. The CG received 26% protein chow and the EG received 4% protein chow for 90 days. Thirty 90-day-old rats were divided into two groups: Control Group (CG, n=15) and Experimental Group (EG, n=15). The effects of protein malnutrition on the quantitative aspects of the myenteric plexus in the ileum of adult Rattus norvegicus were assessed. ![]()
