| Abstract | ||
| Forty females albino rats divided into four groups, three of them (T1, T2, T3) dosed orally with 10000 IU Vitamin A according to different gestation periods while the fourth group dosed with distilled water and considered as control (C). Statistical changes in the weight of different treated groups organs were observed specially in the T3 group that represent period of major organo- functional development and minor organogensis. Also the histopathological study revealed sever liver necrosis and sever pulmonary hyperplasia in T1 group. Also there was subcutaneous abdominal tumor (fibroma) noticed in one female of T2 group. We concluded from our results that high dose of vitamin A may cause cellular, histological and functional defects with possible cryogenic effect in some internal organs and tissue. | ||
