Autonomic nerves and middle ear fluid production. An experimental study in the rat.

abstract：:There have been many morphological investigations on the generation of respiratory epithelium. However, the mucociliary activity of fetal respiratory epithelium has never yet been discussed. In the present work, ciliary activity and mucociliary function in the nose and the trachea of fetal rabbits were studied and, mo...
