Observations were made on adult C(3)H/He mice, males and females of 6 weeks and 6 months old. The mice were splenectomized and the blood was depleted by 0.6ml/once 20days after splenectomy. The hematocrit value decreased to about 30% at 2days after blood depletion and recovered to near normal level after 10days. No significant differences were observed in the hematocrit value in all the animals observed. Reticulocyte counts increased to 20-28% 4-6days after blood depletion with rapid decrease for the following 4days and then returned to the normal level 25-30days after depletion. The maximum level of reticulocyte counts was highest in aged females(28% ) and lowest in young males(20% ). The number of hemopoietic foci in liver observed on HE stained tissue sections showed a marked difference in each group. Male animals, both young and aged, developed no hemopoietic foci. Females developed many foci in liver, higher values in aged females than young ones. Discussion was made on the reason why aged females developed a large number of foci in liver. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=MoriMasaharu en-aut-sei=Mori en-aut-mei=Masaharu kn-aut-name=森将晏 kn-aut-sei=森 kn-aut-mei=将晏 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=KirizukaKeizi en-aut-sei=Kirizuka en-aut-mei=Keizi kn-aut-name=切塚敬治 kn-aut-sei=切塚 kn-aut-mei=敬治 aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=NakamotoShu en-aut-sei=Nakamoto en-aut-mei=Shu kn-aut-name=中本周 kn-aut-sei=中本 kn-aut-mei=周 aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=SadahiraYoshito en-aut-sei=Sadahira en-aut-mei=Yoshito kn-aut-name=定平吉都 kn-aut-sei=定平 kn-aut-mei=吉都 aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=AwaiMichiyasu en-aut-sei=Awai en-aut-mei=Michiyasu kn-aut-name=粟井通泰 kn-aut-sei=粟井 kn-aut-mei=通泰 aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=SenoSatimaru en-aut-sei=Seno en-aut-mei=Satimaru kn-aut-name=妹尾左知丸 kn-aut-sei=妹尾 kn-aut-mei=左知丸 aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学医学部第一病理学教室 affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学医学部第一病理学教室 affil-num=3 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学医学部第一病理学教室 affil-num=4 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学医学部第一病理学教室 affil-num=5 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学医学部第一病理学教室 affil-num=6 en-affil= kn-affil=重井医学研究所 en-keyword=肝髄外造血 kn-keyword=肝髄外造血 en-keyword=マウス kn-keyword=マウス en-keyword=性 kn-keyword=性 en-keyword=週令 kn-keyword=週令 END
