Abstract:
Development of experimental cholera in suckling rabbits is associated with appearance of alterations in glomerular filtration and tubular reabsorption of renal cortex. Ultrastructural changes of nephrons appear in the adhesion period and progress 24 hours later. In this case, particular vulnerability of the kidneys is associated with insufficient development of principal stages both in the cavity and membrane digestion in the gut, therefore, the kidney plays a role of one of the components of the protein-splitting system in the organism.
