چکیده
A procedure for the study of glycogen in the same cell, under both light and electron microscopes is described. The synthesis and accumulation of glycogen is a feature of chondrogenesis in the mouse epiphyseal cartilage and the amount of glycogen increases with the progress of differentiation. In contrast, no glycogen was detected in differentiating epiphyseal cartilage of the chick at any stage; except for a small amount of glycogen in the chick cartilage cells of the diaphysis. Because of this difference it is suggested that presence of glycogen is not essential for cartilage differentiation.

متن کاملImmunohistochemical localization of collagen types I and II in the developing chick cornea and tibia by electron microscopy.
Monoclonal and conventional antibodies against collagen types I and II were used for immunofluorescence and immuno-electron microscopic studies of developing chick corneas (5-day-old embryos to adult) and embryonic limb cartilages. Secondary antibodies were labeled with rhodamine or ferritin. We found that the 5-day primary corneal stroma stains uniformly at the light microscope level with both...
متن کاملLight and electron microscopic in-situ hybridization of collagen type I and type II mRNA in the fibrocartilaginous tissue of late-stage osteoarthritis.
OBJECTIVE Biochemical analysis indicates the presence of collagen type I in fibrocartilaginous tissue of osteoarthritic cartilage, whereas normal hyaline cartilage contains only collagen type II produced by normal chondrocytes. Fibrocartilaginous tissue of late-stage osteoarthritis also exhibits irregularly shaped type 2b secretory chondrocytes as described in the literature. We have attempted ...
متن کاملDifferential response to compressive loads of zones of canine hyaline articular cartilage: micromechanical, light and electron microscopic studies.
Thin (100 micron) perpendicular slices of canine femoral condylar cartilage were placed horizontally on the stage of a Nachet microscope and viewed by transmitted light in the differential interference contrast mode. Each slice was held on the microscope stage by a loading rig and tested mechanically in compression. Measured loads to a maximum of approximately 2-3 MN/m2 were applied to the end ...
