A similar behavior of the Golgi apparatus has been described by Brambell (1925) in the epithelial cells of the oviduct of the fowl during retarded and accelerated secretion. The Epididymis Following Antuitrin-S Administration.—There is a gradual increase in the number of epithelial cells through mitotic divi- sions. No evidence of amitosis has been observed among these cells as Ludford (1925) described in the mouse epididymis. A few basal cells are present in the epithelium before and after treatment, but these are. Fig. 9. Cross-section of tubules from the epididymis of a control during lowest sexuality.

Cross-section of tubule from an involuted epididymis following treat- ment with Antuitrin-S for 30 days (total 600 r. u.).

There is no evidence indicating that the cuboidal cells of the involuted epithelium are lost and subsequently replaced through differentiation of basal cells. The columnar cells are frequently observed undergoing mitoses following Antuitrin-S injections. These dividing cells are clearly the columnar cells of the epithelium, as is indicated by the fact that they may advance as far as the metaphase before losing connection with the basement membrane or withdrawing from the luminal margin of the epithelium.
