Inline graphic: congestion of capillary vessels between thyroid follicles. Inline graphic: deformed, deciduous and necrotic epithelial cells of the thyroid follicles. (A) The thyroid section of animals treated with PTU (0.1 mg per kg bw) + PCBs (0.1 mg per kg bw). (B) The thyroid section of animals treated with PTU (0.1 mg per kg bw) + AP (50.0 mg per kg bw). (C) The thyroid section of animals treated with PCBs (0.1 mg per kg bw) + AP (50.0 mg per kg bw). (D) The thyroid section of animals treated with PTU (0.1 mg per kg bw) + PCBs (0.1 mg per kg bw) + AP (50.0 mg per kg bw). (E) The thyroid section of animals treated with PTU (0.02 mg per kg bw) + PCBs (0.02 mg per kg bw) + AP (28.0 mg per kg bw). (OVX CTL.) The thyroid section of animals from the control group.
