Title: Apoptosis in Developing Glomeruli of Mouse Kidney
Abstract: Objective To study the apoptosis in the development glomerulus of mouse kidney.Methods The embryonic and postnatal mouse kidney was used for light microscopy,and the apoptosis was evaluated dy morphometrical criteria and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated bUTP nick end-labelling(TUNEL)-technique.Results Apoptosis occured in glomeruli first at embryonic 14 days (E14),after wards apoptotic cells increased and peaked at E18,since then apoptotic cells decreased slowly.Conclusion Apoptosis was observed in all the time during the glomerular development of mouse kidney.And apoptosis peaked at E18.
