Abstract The distribution of mitoses among hepatocytes and of dying cells along the hepatic trabecula was determined in rats. The relative rate of movement of the hepatocytes along the trabecular was calculated from these distributions. The direction and velocity of movement of the hepatocytes along the hepatic trabecula were obtained by recording the shift of the peak of labeled cells one month after giving the rats six injections of thymidine-3H.
