Cytochemical characterization of glycoconjugates in the apocrine glands of the equine scrotal skin. Cytochemistry of glycoconjugates in the apocrine glands in the scrotal skin of the horse was studied using cytochemical methods for electron microscopy, particularly lectin cytochemistry. The secretory cells possessed a variable number of secretory vesicles, a well-developed Golgi apparatus, and abundant cisternae of the rough endoplasmic reticulum. Additionally, the basolateral plasma membrane formed numerous interdigitating folds. Glycoconjugates with vicinal diol groupings were present predominantly in the secretory vesicles, the Golgi apparatus, the surface coat of the plasma membrane, and...
Three-dimensional ultrastructure of synoviocytes in the horse joint as revealed by the scanning electron microscope. The synovial membrane displays a superficial cellular lining composed of two types of synoviocytes: "absorptive" macrophages (type A cells) and "secretory" fibroblast-like cells (type B cells). The types are intermingled and extend a variety of processes, rendering the cellular architecture of the synovial membrane difficult to visualize. Previous electron microscopic and histochemical studies failed to demonstrate the entire shape of synoviocytes, except our immunohistochemical study for protein gene product 9.5 in the horse joint. The present SEM study is the first to demonstrate the three-d...
Urogenital paraneurons in several mammals. Amines and/or peptide-producing cells, deserving to be called paraneurons, were demonstrated in the urethro-prostatic complex of the man, rabbit, buffalo and sheep and in the uterine horns of the pig, horse and mouse, by means of histochemical, immunohistochemical, immunofluorescent and double labeling immunofluorescent techniques. In particular, the urethro-prostatic complex of the sheep contains cells producing serotonin, chromogranin A and somatostatin. Often the amine and the "marker"-protein were colocalized in the same cells. Chromogranin A- and somatostatin-containing cells were found i...
