These studies were carried out to investigate the changes of blood pictures, histological findings and testosterone concentrations after orchidectomy in ageing rat. The total W.B.C. counts were 9.27 +- 12 x 10** (3)/mm** (3) in the control group, 9.54 +- 34 x 10** (3)/mm** (3) in the sham-operation group and 12.08 +- 28 x 10** (3)/mm** (3) in the orchidectomy group when it was checked 50days after the operation. The number of lymphocytes after orchidectomy began to increase gradually as time passes, thereafter markedly increased 10.12 +- 03 x 10** (3)/mm** (3) at 50 days after orchidectomy. The concentration of testosterone in serum began to decrease gradually after orchidectomy showed lowest level 1.68 +- 0.61 pg/ml at 50 days after orchidectomy while it was 5.82 +- 0.39 pg/ml in control group. The histological findings of thymus after orchidectomy marked increase of thymic lymphocyte, disapearance of fat cells and appearance of mitotic figures
