Abstract
Seven days after bilateral subdiaphragmatic vagotomy in rats the mean diurnal number of mitoses in the jejunal epithelium is increased by 1.5 times. The character of the diurnal rhythm of mitosis is unchanged but fluctuations in the curve of mitotic activity are reduced. Vagotomy does not disturb the ratio between the volumes of cell populations of the villi and crypts, which indicates that the steady state of renewal of the cell composition of the cryptvillus system is maintained under these conditions.
