Histochemical measurements of rat kidney hexokinase
Abstract:
HK has been measured in substructures of the developing rat nephron. Reactions were carried on samples dissected from freeze dried kidney and assayed in 1 mul reaction volume utilizing the "oil-well" technique. Samples from 4 days prenatal to 44-day adult were analyzed. Activity during development decreased in G, PCT, and it increased in ALH. There was little change in PRT, DCT and CT. Activity in small arteries decreased.
