Abstract
The changes in number and volume of fat cells accompanying changes in the size of the perirenal fat depots of rats induced by dietary and other means have been investigated by direct histological examination and by estimation of the total desoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and fat content. With both methods, an increase in cell volume and in cell number was found to accompany an increase in depot volume.Keywords
