This report is a cytometric study of the female Syrian hamster gallbladder epithelium following 1-, 2-, and 3-month administration of female sex steroids. Nulliparous, multiparous, young, old and pregnant hamsters were used in this study. A 1 month…
Ovariectomized Syrian hamsters treated by female sex steroids during a 1-month period show gallbladder surface epithelial changes in the fundic area consistent with apical bulging and decapitations of the epithelial cells. These events were detected…
Transmission and scanning electron microscopy and flow cytometry were employed to characterize the cytotoxic effects of vitamin C (VC), vitamin K3 (VK3), or VC-VK3 combinations on a human prostate carcinoma cell line (DU145) following a 1-h vitamin…
In view of the lack of sufficient data regarding the morphology of the cystic duct and the extensive focus on the gallbladder, a preliminary examination of the cystic duct response to female sex steroid treatment was conducted to follow up a detailed…
The current study has documented changes in the ultrastructure as well as in the intranucleolar distribution of rDNA and rRNA in RT4 (human transitional cell bladder carcinoma) cell nucleoli following a 3-h exposure to toxic doses of 50 microM…
