[Immunocytochemical study using semi-thin sections of the phenomena of early differentiation in several cell populations of the human fetal adenohypophysis]
Abstract
Immunocytological investigations have been performed on semi-thin sections of human fetal pituitaries ranging in fetal age from 6 to 26 weeks. Corticotrophs can be revealed by anti-ACTH (1-24), anti-ACTH (17-39) and anti-beta MSH but not by anti-alpha MSH immunesera from the 8th week. Somatotrophs are revealed with anti-human STH from 9th week. Differentiating cells containing only alpha subunits of glycoproteic hormones are present from 8th to 12th week. At 13th week beta subunits of TSH can be revealed immunocytologically in thyreotrophs. Beta subunits of LH or FSH can be detected in same gonadotrophic cells only from 15th week.
