title: Glomerular metabolic changes in compensatory renal hypertrophy.
abstract: In compensatory hypertrophy, 7 days after unilateral nephrectomy, an increase in respiration and glucose-6-P dehydrogenase activity are observed in the glomeruli of the hypertrophied kidney. It is suggested that is is related to the clearing of an increased amount of filtration residues by the glomerular cells.
