Crystalloid inclusions reminiscent of Hirano bodies in autolyzed peripheral nerve of normal wistar rats

Crystalloid inclusions reminiscent of Hirano bodies in autolyzed peripheral nerve of normal wistar rats

S Yagishita et al. Acta Neuropathol. 1979 Aug.

Abstract

In a study of experimental autolysis of peripheral nerves of normal Wistar rats, crystalloid inclusions similar to Hirano bodies were observed. They occurred in the nuclei and cytoplasms of Schwann cells and in myelinated axons. They first developed after a 12-h autolysis and increased in number and size with time. Their fine structure, localization, and morphogenesis are discussed in relation to the autolysis of the cellular organelles.
