Intramitochondrial bodies in bovine adrenocortical cells

Intramitochondrial bodies in bovine adrenocortical cells

O Kai et al. Cell Tissue Res. .

Abstract

Electron dense, homogeneous, mostly round intramitochondrial bodies were found in bovine adrenal glands, predominantly in the zona glomerulosa. The histochemical results obtained suggest that these bodies might contain a considerable amount of protein, although the possibility that substances other than proteins are contained in these bodies cannot be completely ruled out. The physiological significance of the intramitochondrial bodies remains unclear.
