SERUM FACTOR IN RENAL COMPENSATORY HYPERPLASIA

L M LOWENSTEIN et al. Science. .

Abstract

Serum from uninephrectomized rats was injected into normal recipient rats. This led to an increased incorporation of tritiated thymidine in the kidney cells, but not in the liver cells of the recipients. The results suggest that there is a humoral substance acting specifically on the kidney that promotes renal compensatory hyperplasia.
