A brief review of kidney development, maturation, developmental abnormalities, and drug toxicity: juvenile animal relevancy.

abstract：:Cardiac hypertrophy was observed in a 9-week-old Crl:CD(SD) rat that died unexpectedly. The animal was allocated to the control group of a toxicity study, and no abnormalities in its general conditions, body weight or food intake were observed. Necropsy revealed an increase in heart weight. Gross examination indicated...
