Binding of 125I-insulin to the isolated glomeruli of rat kidney.

Binding of 125I-insulin to the isolated glomeruli of rat kidney.

To investigate a possible action of insulin on the glomerulus, the binding 125I-insulin to the isolated glomeruli prepared from rat kidney was examined. When incubated at 22 degrees C, 125I-insulin binding proceeded with time and reached a steady state at 45 min at which time nonspecific binding was less than 25% of total binding. A small fraction of 125I-insulin was degraded during incubation....

Prostaglandin synthesis in isolated rat kidney glomeruli.

Isolated rat kidney glomeruli converted octatritiated arachidonic acid to several prostaglandins whose production was inhibited by meclofenamate. These were, in order of decreasing abundance, prostaglandin F2 alpha, prostaglandin E2, 6-oxo-prostaglandin F1 alpha, thromboxane B2, and prostaglandin D2. These products were identified by thin-layer chromatography, before and after treatment with po...

STAG ES OF DEVELOPMENT OF RENAL GLOMERULI IN THE NEWBORN RAT KIDNEY

Glomerular development of the kidney was studied in newborn rats by electron microscopy. Four different stages of glomerular development were defined: vesicle fonnation, S-shaped body stage, capillary loop fonnation, and glomerular maturation. In the fust stage, the mesenchymal cells form a spheroid mass. This is followed by the S-shaped body stage in which clefts appear in the mass. Afte...

from linguistics to literature: a linguistic approach to the study of linguistic deviations in the turkish divan of shahriar

chapter i provides an overview of structural linguistics and touches upon the saussurean dichotomies with the final goal of exploring their relevance to the stylistic studies of literature. to provide evidence for the singificance of the study, chapter ii deals with the controversial issue of linguistics and literature, and presents opposing views which, at the same time, have been central to t...
