Abstract
The adrenal weight of the ovine fetus increases dramatically during late pregnancy. This increase is achieved in three periods: one of DNA duplication between two phases of cellular hypertrophy. During cellular hypertrophy an important biosynthesis of membrane proteins is observed. This development concerns essentially the adrenal cortex.
