Calcium-containing structures in vertebrate glial cells. Ultrastructural and microprobe analysis
Electron probe microanalysis has revealed that vesicular or cisternal structures containing electron-dense material in frog ependymal glial cells contain deposits of calcium and phosphorus. The so-called "osmiophilic particles" in human astrocytes also contain calcium. It is suggested that...

Sumario: | Electron probe microanalysis has revealed that vesicular or cisternal structures containing electron-dense material in frog ependymal glial cells contain deposits of calcium and phosphorus. The so-called "osmiophilic particles" in human astrocytes also contain calcium. It is suggested that these organelles are storage sites of calcium. |
