Radioautographic study of palatine tonsillar cells.
Proliferative and functional (protein producing) activities of palatine tonsillar cells were studied by light radioautography (semithin sections). 3H-Thymidine incorporation demonstrated the dynamics of renewal of palatine tonsillar cell populations in various pathological states. 3H-Uridine labeling objectively evaluated functional activity of different cells and more accurately showed distribution of destructive processes in the organ.
