title: [Cytological organization of the hepatic ligament in rats].
abstract: A method of integration frequencies of distribution of classes of hepatocytes, DNA-synthesising cells and mitoses along the hepatic balk was applied to the study of the cytological organization of the balk in rats of different age. Distribution of subpopulations of hepatocytes in the hepatic balk displayed distinct features of space organization: most of mitoses and of the DNA-synthesizing hepatocytes were localized at the beginning of the balk, the first nuclear class prevailed at the beginning and the end of the balk, and the second class--in the middle of the balk. The results presented served as an additional confirmation of the presence of self-renewal processes in the liver of adult rats.
