Development of the glomerulus in fetal kidney was studied morphometrically following ligation of both ureters of pregnant rats. The ligation was performed on days 17,19, and 21 of gestation, and autopsy was done 24 hr after each operation. The percentage volumes of the five glomerular components (ep

Background: The present study was designed to clarify development of filtration property of fetal renal glomerulus when maternal kidney is dysfunctional. Materials and Methods: Maternal bilateral ureteral ligation was performed on days 17, 19, and 21 of pregnancy. One day after each operation, catio
Developmental processes of the fetal rat kidney from uninephrectomized mothers were studied. The uninephrectomy was performed on day 5 of gestation. Glomerular number and volume in the fetal kidneys on days 18, 20, and 22 of gestation were morphometrically determined. To investigate the anionic site
## Abstract The effects of rapamycin on glycogen autophagy in the newborn rat liver were studied using biochemical determinations, electron microscopy, and morphometric analysis. Rapamycin increased the fractional volume of hepatocytic autophagic vacuoles, the liver lysosomal glycogenβhydrolyzing a
## Abstract The effects of glucagon on the ultrastructural appearance and acid glucosidase activities in the liver and heart of newborn rats were studied. Liver or heart glycogenβhydrolyzing activity of acid glucosidase increased 3 hours after birth and gradually decreased from 3 to 9 hours. Maltos
