Abstract
A new experimental model of glucocorticoid-induced tubular cyst formation has been developed in metanephric organ culture. The addition of cortisol (1.4 X 10(-5) M) to chemically defined serum-free culture medium produces cystic changes during in vitro nephrogenesis . The model isolates the role of glucocorticoids in experimental cyst formation.Entities:
