## Abstract The posterodorsal portion of the medial amygdala (MePD) is sexually dimorphic in several rodent species. In several other brain nuclei, astrocytes change morphology in response to steroid hormones. We visualized MePD astrocytes using glialβfibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) immunocytochem

The postnatal maturation of the vallate papilla and its taste buds was quantitatively investigated in rats by light microscopy. Specifically, we measured postnatal increases in the size of mature vallate taste buds and the vallate papilla, increases in the thickness of the gustatory epidermis, and i
We compared the ontogeny of collagen (hydroxyproline), elastin (desmosine), soluble protein, and DNA in the lungs of rate and humans during gestation and postnatal life. In humans, lung weight/body weight ratios declined faster during gestation than postnatally, whereas in rats lung weight/body weig
