title: [Histological examination of changes due to aging in the femur compacta of laboratory and house mice].
abstract: The age changes in the histological structure of the femur corticalis in ICR laboratory mice (from 20 to 300 days) and in house mice (from 50 to 520 days) were studied. In both forms of mice the circumferential lamellae prevailed, with increased age they are substitued by secondary but mainly primary Haversian systems and the interstitial systems of vartious shape. Certain differences in the construction of the femur corticalis, were found in both species of mice; from among the latter the mouse is more suitable for the demonstration of age changes.
