Seasonal changes in the ultrastructure of the kidney collecting tubule in the lizard Podarcis ( = Lacerta) taurica

Journal of Morphology, 1983
AbstractIn female Podarcis taurica the kidney collecting tubule always consists entirely of mucous‐secreting cells. In males it has a seasonally variable sexual segment and a non variable mucous‐secreting segment. In April the sexual segment is composed of columnar cells with cytoplasm rich in ribosomes and Golgi bodies and apical clusters of large ...

Relationship between vasopressin-sensitive water transport and plasma membrane fluidity in kidney collecting tubule

American Journal of Physiology-Cell Physiology, 1991
The role of plasma membrane fluidity in the regulation of kidney tubule water permeability has been uncertain. We have used new methods to image the fluorescence anisotropy of fluidity-sensitive fluorophores (Fushimi, Dix, and Verkman. Biophys. J.

Measurements of nuclear size in collecting tubules of the kidney of rats during prolonged hypokinesia and ambulatory conditions

International Urology and Nephrology, 2001
Hypokinesia (decreased motor activity) induces significant morphological changes in the kidneys, but little is known about the effect of hypokinesia (HK) on the collecting duct nuclei of the kidney. The aim of this study was to measure the effect of prolonged HK on the nuclear size in the inner meduallary collecting ducts on the kidney of rats. Studies

Nuclear size measurements in collecting tubules of the rat kidney in establishing the effect of hypokinesia on the kidney morphology.

Minerva urologica e nefrologica = The Italian journal of urology and nephrology, 2003
Hypokinesia (reduced motor activity) induces significant tissue morphological changes, however, it is not known if hypokinesia (HK) could contribute to morphological changes in the kidney. Measuring the nuclear size in the inner medullary collecting ducts on the kidney of rats the aim of this investigation was to disclose kidney morphological changes ...

[Functional morphology of the kidney. A review of the histophysiology of the kidney glomerulus, the nephrons and the collecting tubule system].

Tierarztliche Praxis, 1990
The kidney is a composite organ, the specific activities of which are attributable to the peculiar construction of the individual components of the glomerula, nephrons and collecting tubules. This comprehensive review will address the essential physiological mechanisms of urine formation, such as filtration, secretion, reabsorption and concentration ...

[Transport mechanisms and metabolic processes in isolated cells of the collecting tubule of the kidney papilla].

Klinische Wochenschrift, 1988
Taking into account recent results obtained with isolated papillary collecting duct cells the metabolic pathways and membrane transport systems of collecting duct cells are reviewed. The plasma membranes contain a luminal proton AT-Pase and a contraluminal Cl-/HCO3- exchanger which are involved in proton secretion; a luminal sodium channel and a ...

Surface Epithelia. Simple Columnar Epithelium. Example: Collecting Tubule of the Rat Kidney

1985
In the upper part of the plate, an interlobular artery (1) is depicted with an afferent (2) and efferent (3) arteriole. A nephron, the parts of which arerenal corpuscle (4), proximal tubule (5), thin segment (6), distal tubule (7), and connecting portion (8)—is joined to a collecting tubule (9), which is lined with simple columnar epithelium (10).
