Effect of stress induced by expsoure to short and long term foot shock on liver, spleen and kidney in aged mice

DiscussionThus it is concluded from the entire study that long term stress causes degeneration in hepatic cells, infiltration in liver, degeneration of glomerulus, bowman’s capsule, convoluted tubules in kidney which finally leading to both hepato-toxicity and nephro-toxicity. In spleen long term stress alters the immune response in Old age Albino Mice by inducing morphology changes, explaining in part the indicating impaired immunity that develops in organisms that are exposed to chronic stress.
