[Infradian rhythmics of markers of physiologic and metabolic processes in Wistar male rats].

This work presents the results of the amplitude-phase structure of the physiological rhythms (locomotor activity) and steroid hormones production (common testosterone and cortisole) in gelded and intact Wistar male rats as well as rats exposed to an information load. The markers have been shown to depend on the social state of the animal. It was proved that there was a phase coincidence of the periods of the biological rhythms of common testosterone (intact rats), cortisole and locomotor activity for animals with different individualand typological features. It was shown that the oscillation period of infradian rhythms of the measured markers of physiologic and metabolic processes in the animals of all groups amounted to 4 days. It was found that infradian rhythms were not sensitive to factors of various genesis.
