Rats were exposed to a constant magnetic field of 26268A/m. Depending on the exposure time, the thyroid gland showed changes in the follicular epithelium height, content of ribonucleoproteins and PAS [periodic acid Schiff]-positive substance, activity of adenylate cyclase, whereas blood serum exhibited changes in the concentration of thyroid hormones and no changes in the content of thyrotropic hormones.
