| Title | Circadiane Rhythm of Cell Proliferation in Rat Liver: Synchronization by Feeding Habits  | ||
| Abstract | A diurnal rhythm of cell proliferation exists in the liver of young rodents and in the growing liver of rats treated with a-hexachlorocyclohexane (a-HCH). The timing of the rhythm is dependent on the time of feeding but independent from the lighting regimen. This suggests that under natural circumstances the light-dark rhythm synchronizes the rhythm of hepatocyte proliferation by con trolling the animals' feeding habits. | ||
