Ultrastructure of the Carotid Body
An electron microscope investigation was made of the carotid body in the cat and the rabbit. In thin-walled blood vessels the endothelium was fenestrated. Larger vessels were surrounded by a layer of smooth muscle fibers. Among the numerous blood vessels lay groups of cells of two types covered by basement membranes. Aggregates of Type I cells were invested by Type II cells, though occasionally...
متن کاملUltrastructure Human Carotid Body
Surgically excised human carotid bodies have been analyzed by electron microscopy. Several ultrastructural features suggest that they are closely related to sympathetic neuroendocrine glands and autonomic ganglia: the chief cells synthesize intensely osmiophilic cytoplasmic granules, occasionally develop neuroid processes, and are intimately associated with neurilemmal sustentacular cells. Othe...
متن کاملA preliminary anatomical study on carotid body of Makouei sheep
The carotid is a small mass of chemoreceptor's and sustentacular cells that detects changes in the composition of the arterial blood. The aim of the present study was to identify the size, color, location, blood and nerve supply of the carotid body in Makouei sheep.

متن کاملThe aging carotid body.
The respiratory system is subject to the aging process, which could limit its responsiveness to hyperventilatory stimuli. Attenuation of the ventilatory response to hypoxia in old age is, as yet, an unresolved issue. Such attenuation may be germane for the pathogenesis of respiratory disorders developing more often in elderly subjects. The aim of this study was to determine the potential advers...
متن کامل[Paragangliomas of the carotid body].
61 Abstract. – Cervical paragangliomas are uncommon benign or malignant neoplasms, originated by stem cells of neural crest. It is not easy nowadays to define properly their biological behaviour, the possible multiple location and the association with Multiple Endocrine Neoplasms. After a wide review about recent diagnostic, pathological and clinical acquisition, authors report their caseload o...
