Ultrastructural examinations of the zone function of the rat pineal gland in terms of mitochondrial bioenergetics
Abstract
Membrane-membrane relations in the pineal gland were analysed. It was found that neighbouring pinealocytes may be in different mitochondrial configurational states. The pinealocytes lying next to the same glial cell and around nerve endings are in one metabolic state. Close to blood vessels this uniformity occurred when the perivascular space was surrounded by one glial cell.
