These two Volumes provide information on the pathological changes that occur with age in commonly used strains of laboratory rats, a subject of increasing importance to animal pathologists in regulatory, industrial, and academic laboratories. Recognized authorities review the literature on the aging process in laboratory rats. Taking an organ-system approach, the work covers development, growth, aging, nonneoplastic and neoplastic age-associated lesions, and changes in susceptibility to toxins during aging. The material presented provides important baseline information for scientists involved in long-term toxicity and carcinogenesis testing, and will be useful to pathologists, toxicologists, and gerontologists. Volume 1 covers: Blood and Lymphoid System; Respiratory System; Urinary System; Cardiovascular System; Reproductive System. Volume 2 covers: Nervous System and Special Sense Organs; Endocrine System; Digestive Systems; Integumentary System and Mammary Gland; Musculoskeletal System and Soft Tissue; General Aspects.
