The mucosubstances in the gastrointestinal mucous secreting cells of Rana rugosa were detected histochmeically during pre-hibernating, hibernating, post-hibernating and active phases. The results of the observation were as follows: 1. The mucosubstances in the gastrointestinal mucous secreting cells of active frog were strongly PAS-active in stomach, PAS-active and alcianophilic at pH 2.5 in small intestine and alcianophilic at pH 2.5 in large intestine. 2. The PAS-active mucosubstances in the gastric surface epithelial cells were increased remarkably during hibernation. 3. The alcianophilic mucosubstances at both pH 2.5 and pH 1.0 were decreased remarkably in the goblet cells of small intestine during hibernation, but a little PAS-active ones were increased. 4. The alcianophilic mucosubstances at pH 2.5 were decreased remarkably and a lttle PAS-active ones also were done in the goblet cells of large intestine during hibernation. 5. The increases of the contained quantity of mucosubstances in the gastric surface epithelial cells during hibernationi may have theeffects of preventing cohesions of gastric mucosae and suppressing activities of gastric acid and enzymes. The mucosubstances neutral acidity in the intestine during hibernation may be secreted, because of acidity being done near neutrality in its lumen, due to remarkable decrease of intestinal juices and gastric acids.
