Abstract
The influence of losartan, angiotensin receptor on the histological image of the adrenal glomerular layer of white rats was revealed. The drug was administered in the therapeutic and ten times higher dose. It was manifested by the decrease of glandular cells and prevalence of blastic cells of the cortex. After a 2-month break in drug administration, the reconstruction of glandular cells was noticed, which could indicate that the observed changes are of transitory character.
