Thymidine-H3 was injected to young rats and mice and the radioautographic distribution established at times varying from 20 minutes to 3 months thereafter. The sites of uptake were determined immediately after injection and the migration of labelled cells, if any, was followed at later intervals. The cell populations of the 200-g rat may be classified into 3 categories on the basis of thymidine-H3 uptake: (a) static: in which no labelled nuclei appear. This group includes various neurones and the nervous retina. (b) expanding: in which a small number of labelled nuclei appear and persist indefinitely, indicating that new cells are permanently added to the cell population, which thus increases in size (at a rate comparable to that at which the body weight itself is expanding). This category includes muscle tissues (smooth, cardiac and striated), most connective tissues, organs such as liver and kidney, glands such as pancreas and sublingual, endocrines such as thyroid and adrenal, the epithelial cells of the lens, etc.(c) renewing: in which the appearance of large numbers of labelled nuclei indicates active cell production, while the subsequent rapid decrease and disappearance of the labelled nuclei indicate cell loss. Simultaneous production and loss of cells would allow a continuous replacement of the population. This category includes 2 types of populations: some in which proliferation occurs in restricted areas, e.g. the basal region in stratified squamous epithelia, the isthmus of gastric glands for surface cells of stomach, the crypts of Lieberkilhn for small and large intestine, etc.; and others in which proliferation is diffuse, e.g. seminal vesicle epithelium, blood forming cells, etc...
