Abstract
Within a week of adrenalectomy there was consistently a decrease in the histochemically demonstrable succinic dehydrogenase activity of the heart, skeletal muscle, kidney, liver, gastric mucosa, pancreas, parotid gland and brain of male albino rats of the Wistar strain. The depression was most marked in the parietal cells of the gastric mucosa, in the kidney tubules and in the exocrine cells of pancreas. There was no histochemically detectable alteration in the protein-bound sulfhydryl groups after adrenalectomy.
