A study was made of the structural changes in different organoids of enterocytes of the rat small intestine at "rest" and during lipid absorption using ultrathin sections, impregnation with Ur-Pb-Cu, and continuous impregnation with OsO4. With the latter technique a specific canalicular system was found in the enterocytes, which we failed to observe on ultrathin sections. During lipid absorption the canalicular system underwent fragmentation.

Cell morphology of transplants was studied by light and electron microscopy, the activity of their LDH M- and H-subunits was examined cytochemically, and the quantity of their nuclear DNA--cytophotometrically. In the case of A-7/1, A-7/2 and A-7/3 cell lines of EAC transplants we noticed a decrease in cell element kataplasia levels, differences in LDH M- and H-form ratio, reduction in the karyotype variability.
