  • Title: Chronic reduction of renal mass: glomerular morphometry by electron microscopy.
    Author: Shea SM.
    Journal: Yale J Biol Med; 1978; 51(3):321-3. PubMed ID: 735154.
    Abstract:
    Changes of glomerular volume in rats were measured up to 21 weeks following subtotal nephrectomy, using morphometric methods. A linear increase of glomerular volume was observed between 2 and 21 weeks after subtotal nephrectomy. This progressive increase in glomerular volume may reflect compensatory hemodynamic changes leading to an increased single nephron glomerular filtration rate.
