Morphological structure cartilage joints of sternum of alloxan Diabetes

The material of the study was 32 mature rats and their offspring. We used informative methods such as histological and histochemical, morphometric. As a result of the study, morphological changes in the bone-cartilaginous-ligamentous structure of the rib-sternal complex in the offspring obtained from pregnant rats with diabetes mellitus in the period of early ontogenesis are presented. It has been established that the negative impact of antenatal diabetes mellitus on the development of the connective tissue formation of the sterno-costal complex. This article describes the morphological changes in the anatomical structures of the rib-sternal complex in rat pups born from pregnant individuals with experimental diabetes mellitus.
