1628 CELLULAR GROWTH IN THE MATURING RABBIT KIDNEY CORTICAL COLLECTING TUBULE (CCT) [PDF]
Pediatric Research, 1985 Postnatal development of the proximal nephron is characterized by non-linear growth as a function of time (AJP 245:F391, 1983). We were interested in describing maturation of the CCT, a distal segment whose embryological origin differs from that of the proximal tubule. Mid-CCTs from newborn (NB), 1 month old, and adult rabbits (n=4-7 animals per group)

Human alpha defensin 5 expression in the human kidney and urinary tract.
PLoS ONE, 2012 BackgroundThe mechanisms that maintain sterility in the urinary tract are incompletely understood. Recent studies have implicated the importance of antimicrobial peptides (AMP) in protecting the urinary tract from infection.

Differential Expression Of Gap Junction mRNAs And Proteins In The Developing Murine Kidney And In Experimentally Induced Nephric Mesenchymes [PDF]
, 1992 The expression of three gap junction (GJ) proteins, alpha-1 (Cx43), beta-1 (Cx32), and beta-2 (Cx26), and their transcripts were examined during the ontogeny of the mouse and rat kidney. These proteins were expressed in two non-overlapping patterns.
