title: [Hourly (ultradian) cellular rhythms: initial studies and some results].
abstract: Circahoralian cellular rhythms have been revealed after the amendment of quantitative cytochemical methods initiated at the Department of Histology (Moscow State University) and Laboratory of Cytology (Institute of Animal Morphology, Russian Academy of Sciences). The first findings have been confirmed in many laboratories. Circumhoralian kinetics proved to be specific for various cell types (from bacteria to mammalian cells) and cellular functions. Independent physiological investigations found circahoralian rhythms for various tissue functions. Distribution of the rhythms as well as their possible nature and significance for tissue biology are reviewed.
