This book provides a concise approach to understanding the spontaneous and induced lesions in the respiratory system of laboratory animals, especially the rat, mouse, and hamster. This expanded second edition keeps the basic format of the first edition but provides much more information applicable to the study of toxicologic pathology. The approach adopted through the entire volume is precise identification of the cells followed by consideration of perturbations caused by toxicants of other etiologic agents. Current understanding of the nature and significance of pathologic lesions is probed throughout the volume. Although toxicologic pathology is emphasized, experimental pathologists and other scientists will find this book especially useful.

This is the sixth volume in a set of concise, well-illustrated and authoritative studies on natural and experimental lesions of laboratory animals. The Monographs on Pathology of Laboratory Animals are designed to facilitate communication among those involved in the safety testing of foods, drugs, and chemicals. The complete set will cover all organ systems and is intended for use by pathologists, toxicologists, and others concerned with evaluating toxicity and carcinogenicity studies. This volume on the nervous systems covers in detail the effects of neurotoxins, neoplasms, infections, and inherited diseases and others of unknown etiology.

This volume is one of a set of concise, well-illustrated and authoritative studies of natural and experimental lesions of laboratory animals (rat, mouse and hamster) arranged by organ systems. Carefully identified pathologic features are correlated with biologic, toxicologic and behavioral data. The frequency and significance of specific lesions in different species and strains from different geographic regions and laboratory environments are depicted graphically. The significance of each lesion is considered and comparisons are made with other species including man. The authors are specialists working in laboratories throughout the world, and each contribution is critically reviewed by an international editorial board. As with other volumes in the set, an internationally applicable nomenclature for recording and evaluating pathologic data produced in safety studies is proposed.

This volume is one of a set of concise, well illustrated and authoritative studies of natural and experimental lesions of laboratory animals arranged by organ system. Volumes 11 and 12 the latest in a set of twelve are devoted to pathologic lesions in nonhuman primates. The first volume includes data on diseases which affect two or more anatomic systems. The second is arranged by anatomic systems. Precise differential diagnostic criteria and terminology are given emphasis. Included are useful data on pathogenesis, etiology, biologic behavior, frequency in different species under varying laboratory conditions. The significance of each lesion is considered and comparisons are made with other species including man. References to the world literature have been selected to permit access to the critically important publications of each subject.

The International Life Sciences Institute (ILSI) was creat ed to promote cooperative efforts toward solving critical health and safety questions involving foods, drugs, cosmet ics, chemicals, and other aspects of the environment. The officers and trustees believe that questions regarding health and safety are best resolved when government and industry rely on scientific investigations, analyses, and reviews by independent experts. Further, the scientific aspects of an issue should be examined and discussed on an international basis, separate from the political concerns of individual companies. The Institute is pleased to sponsor this set of monographs on pathology of laboratory animals. This project will help to improve the scientific application of the techniques of pathology to the evaluation of substances in our environ ment. The worldwide distribution of the authors, editors, and editorial board encourages the expectation that inter national communication and cooperation will also be strengthened. Alex Malaspina President International Life Sciences Institute Preface This book on the endocrine system is Volume I of a set of reference books on pathology of laboratory animals, prepared by the Interna tional Life Sciences Institute in response to recommendations from its Committee on Pathology and Toxicology. One aim is to provide infor mation which will be useful to pathologists, especially those involved in studies on the safety of foods, drugs, chemicals, and other sub stances in the environment.
