Evidence of three cell types in the islets of Langerhans in sand rats (Psammomys obesus)
Abstract
The islets of Langerhans of sand rats were examined light- and electron microscopically with respect to the presence of various cell types. Apart from A- and B-cells, already known in sand rats, the presence of the third type of cells was established in the islet organ. According to their topography, argyrophilia (Hellman and Hellerström technique) and electron microscopical appearance of their granules they should be considered as D-cells.
