Compensatory and obligatory renal growth in rats

American Journal of Physiology-Legacy Content, 1974
SILBER, SHERMAN, AND RICHARD L. MALVIN. Compensatory and obligatory renal growth in rats. Am. J. Physiol. 226(l) : 114-l 17. 1974.-Renal size and function were studied in three groups of rats in an attempt to gain information relating to the control of renal size.

Compensatory Adrenal Growth is Neurally Mediated

Neuroendocrinology, 2008
We have tested the possibility that compensatory adrenal growth is neurally mediated. Small unilateral electrolytic lesions were made in the ventral hypothalamus of young male rats. Subsequently, unilateral adrenalectomy was performed on the side ipsilateral or contralateral to the hypothalamic lesion.

Inhibition of compensatory renal growth by indomethacin

Prostaglandins, 1986
Renal prostaglandins may be important in the modulation of compensatory renal growth. Reductions in renal mass are associated with increased synthesis of these substances by the remaining kidney, and inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis diminishes renal function in partially nephrectomized animals and in patients with reduced functioning renal mass ...

Human Fetal Compensatory Renal Growth

Journal of Urology, 1993
The occurrence of prenatal compensatory renal growth has remained in question, despite the general acceptance of this phenomenon postnatally. We measured by ultrasound imaging the renal length of 22 human fetuses with a solitary kidney or contralateral multicystic dysplastic kidney, and compared it to measurements in 40 normal control fetuses.

Compensatory Growth in Fibrotic Lung Injury

The American Journal of the Medical Sciences, 1991
We induced severe left-sided lung fibrosis by the unilateral endobronchial instillation of paraquat (1.0 mg/kg) into the left lungs of adult Fischer 344 male rats. Growth of the contralateral lung as well as its proliferative activity were measured 6 or 14 days later.

Resource allocation, hyperphagia and compensatory growth

Bulletin of Mathematical Biology, 2004
Organisms often shown enhanced growth during recovery from starvation, and can even overtake continuously fed conspecifics (overcompensation). In an earlier paper (Ecology 84, 2777-2787), we studied the relative role played by hyperphagia and resource allocation in producing overcompensation in juvenile (non-reproductive) animals.

Polyribosomes during compensatory growth of the kidney

Journal of Surgical Research, 1966
Summary Polyribosomes were isolated from kidneys after contralateral nephrectomy and after sham operation and identified by isotopic labeling and density gradient centrifugation. o 1. Nephrectomy greatly increased the yield of ribosome-associated material. 2.

Signals and mechanisms of compensatory lung growth

Journal of Applied Physiology, 2004
Growth of the lung involves unique structure-function interactions not seen in solid organs. Mechanical feedback between the lung and thorax constitutes a major signal that sustains developmental as well as compensatory lung growth. After the loss of lung units as by pneumonectomy (PNX), increased mechanical stress and strain on the remaining units ...

Studies of compensatory growth in sheep

The Journal of Agricultural Science, 1972
SUMMARYA number of observations have been made on 5- to 6-month old wether Hampshire heep undergoing uninterrupted growth (36·2% gain in shrunk wool-free live weight over 58 days), undernutrition (a 21·7% fall in body weight over 27 days) and then followed by compensatory growth (a gain of 62·2% in live weight over 52 days).Sheep being underfed had ...

Compensatory Trends of Forest Growth

Ecology, 1974
Thinnings of forest stands invariably increase the diameter of trees, but not their heights. The question of why an augmented supply of light and water promotes the division of lateral cambial cells but not of the apical cells has so far failed to received a satisfactory answer from plants physiologists.
