Acute opisthorchiasis was simulated on 64 golden hamsters to reveal circadian rhythms of mitotic activity in the jejunum, ileum and cecum epithelium, with a maximum amounting to 3 hours. Acute opisthorchiasis modifies the mitotic regimen of the test parts of the intestine, smooths and distorts the rhythm. A conclusion is drawn about the reduced functional-structural reserves of gastrointestinal tract epithelium in helminthiasis in question.
