Similarity between cytoplasmic inclusions in the paraventricular hypothalamic nucleus neurons of the turtle Mauremys caspica and the cytoplasmic structures as reaction to viral infections (hepatitis) and SIDA ultrastructural tracers
Abstract
Two types of "inclusions" observed in the neurons of the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus of the turtle Mauremys caspica, "tubular systems" and "fingerprint-like" structures, may be added to the inventory of those described in apparently normal neurons. Despite their enigmatic significance, we are inclined to think that they could be a morphological expression of viral diseases in the neuron cytoplasm. These structures have a striking similarity with those observed on pathological cells (hepatitis and SIDA).
