mitochondrial morphology. A mitochondrion is morphologically defined as a cell organelle …

Centrolobular regions of rat kidney glomeruli were studied electron microscopically after
fixation in the living animal and embedding in Araldite or Epon. Intercapillary cells within …

During recent years many of the diffuse glomerular diseases that affect man have been
thought to have an immunologic basis. As will become apparent in this review, the evidence …

3) Glomerular anlage cells proliferate immediately below the inner layer and form
intercellular space and later on blood'cavities. From a very early stage these intercellular …

Results Random urine samples of radiated animals showed slight to moder-ate proteinuria
(Kingsley's ultramicro method), ranging from 24 to 120 mg/24 hr with an average of 55 …
