... tension in the basilar membrane-spiral ligament complex. In this study, fibroblast structure and relationship with the extracellular matrix was examined by light and transmission electron microscopy in the guinea pig spiral ligament. Tension fibroblasts were found in marginal and subcentral regions...

...Y. Atoji; T. Nakaoka; Y. Yamamoto; Y. Suzuki Injections of chick erythrocytes were employed to examine the relationship between expression of S-100 protein and antigen stimulation in the giant macrophages (GM) and follicular dendritic cells (FDC) of guinea pig lymph nodes by an immunocytochemical...

... tracers in the adult guinea pig of which the facial nerve had been surgically injured. In different stages after the induced facial palsy had recovered functionally (4-13 weeks after the surgical operation), wheat germ-agglutinated horseradish peroxidase (WGA-HRP) was injected into the PDG and Fluoro-Ruby...

... in the guinea pig heart. This goal was achieved by double- and triple-labelling immunofluorescence. Dynorphin- and α-neoendorphin-immunoreactive nerve fibers were numerous around coronary blood vessels and among cardiomyocytes. They also contained immunoreactivities to the rate-limiting enzyme of catecholamine...

... in cultured guinea pig and rat pineal glands. The glands were preincubated for 48 h so that intra-pineal sympathetic nerve fibres degenerate and no longer release noradrenaline which may distort the results. CD had no effect on SR profile numbers in guinea pigs, but decreased them in rats (p > 0.05...

...Y. Atoji; D. Shirogane; T. Kurono; Y. Suzuki; M. Sugimura Giant cells containing S-100 protein of the lymphoid tissues in the guinea pig were studied by immunohistochemistry using S-100 antiserum. S-100-immunoreactive giant cells were dendritic in shape, contained one or two irregular-shaped...

...P. Huang; C.C. Tam; Y.C. Wong The seminal vesicle of the guinea pig has been widely used as a model for the study of hormonal action on the male accessory sex organ, but there have been few attempts to quantify their cellular and tissue components. In the present study, the seminal vesicle...

...U. Muglia; E. Vizza; S. Correr; G. Germanà; P.M. Motta The three-dimensional architecture of the isthmic myosalpinx in the guinea pig was investigated by means of a technique that involves stretching the myosalpinx under a dissecting microscope followed by selective digestion of the interstitial...

...L. Chan; Y.C. Wong A systematic histochemical study of the complex carbohydrates of the lateral prostate and seminal vesicle of the guinea pig has been made. The complex carbohydrates of the guinea pig male accessory sex glands were partially characterized by various conventional carbohydrate...

...S. Aharinejad; P. Gangler; D. Hagen; W. Firbas The colonic microvascularization of 10 adult Sprague-Dawley rats and guinea pigs (Cavia porcellus) was studied by scanning electron microscopy of micro vascular corrosion casts. The tunica muscularis is supplied by branches of the sub-mucosal...

...H. Toh; T. Ohmori A three-dimensional study of the development of the thyroid gland in human and guinea pig embryos was made together with a histological investigation of the foramen caecum of the human adult tongue. In the human embryo, an epithelial depression was not seen between the first...

...Y. Uno; O. Ohtani; Y. Masuda The vascular organization of the guinea pig tympanic membrane was studied by light microscopy in India-ink-, colored-gelatin-, or horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-injected specimens. The ultrastructural localization of the vessels was examined by transmission electron...

...L.M. Pastor; A.E. Amores; R. Villaverde; A. Calvo; C. Sprekelsen The histology of the conchae of the nasal cavity in the guinea pig was investigated by means of conventional light and transmission electron microscopy. The results showed a clear structural difference between the anterior...

...E. Bertelli; M. Regoli; L. Comparini The localization of absorbing lymph vessels was studied in the normal guinea pig pancreas by light microscopy (serial semithin sections) and transmission electron microscopy (ultrathin sections). Absorbing lymph vessels were observed both in the interlobular...

The main supplying and draining vessels are located in the adventitial layer; from...

...Julia Beatty; Giorgio Gabella We studied the ureter of guinea pigs to ascertain whether there are ganglia and ganglion neurons directly associated with this structure. We consistently observed ureteric ganglia and individual neurons in the adventitia of the ureter or very close to it. There were...
