Abstract
Rats were exposed to repeated episodes of hydropenia for periods of 5 and 16 wk, and structural alterations of renal medulla were investigated by light and EM. The hydropenia induced, within the inner medulla, focally severe structural changes in the tubular and endothelia and loss of interstitial cells. Repeated episodes of hydropenia are apparently capable of inducing cellular alterations of the renal medulla, particularly in the interstitial cells.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
