[Structure of lymphatic vessels in the rat thyroid gland]. 1990

L I Polianskaia, and A A Mironov, and G A Alimov

The lymphatic bed of the thyroid gland has been studied in 24 intact rats. Three techniques facilitating to reveal lymphatic vessels in the organ have been used: preparation of semithin sections, injection of the blood bed with methyl methacrylate with a successive chemical extraction of the preparations, injection of the blood bed with liquid solution of methyl methacrylate with a consecutive study of the preparations in the scanning electron microscope. Methods of electron histochemistry (revealing horseradish peroxidase) and kryofractography have been applied. Construction of the thyroid lymphatic bed, structure of the wall are described, fibroblastic membrane (F-membrane) is revealed and the signs are presented, that allow to differentiate F-membrane from endothelium of the lymphatic capillaries. The pathways of lymph outflow in the rat thyroid gland consist of the following links: interstitial space in the interlobular spaces of the gland, into them the tissue liquor (lymph) is filtered ; plates of the F-membrane regulating direction of excessive albumin-containing liquor in the lymphatic capillaries, surrounding groups of 5-11 follicles, embracing the microlobule of the gland and situating in the interlobular spaces, deferent lymphatic vessels.

D008196 Lymph The interstitial fluid that is in the LYMPHATIC SYSTEM. Lymphs
D008208 Lymphatic System A system of organs and tissues that process and transport immune cells and LYMPH. Lymphatic Systems
D008855 Microscopy, Electron, Scanning Microscopy in which the object is examined directly by an electron beam scanning the specimen point-by-point. The image is constructed by detecting the products of specimen interactions that are projected above the plane of the sample, such as backscattered electrons. Although SCANNING TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY also scans the specimen point by point with the electron beam, the image is constructed by detecting the electrons, or their interaction products that are transmitted through the sample plane, so that is a form of TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY.

D008867 Microtomy The technique of using a microtome to cut thin or ultrathin sections of tissues embedded in a supporting substance. The microtome is an instrument that hold a steel, glass or diamond knife in clamps at an angle to the blocks of prepared tissues, which it cuts in sections of equal thickness.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D013961 Thyroid Gland A highly vascularized endocrine gland consisting of two lobes joined by a thin band of tissue with one lobe on each side of the TRACHEA. It secretes THYROID HORMONES from the follicular cells and CALCITONIN from the parafollicular cells thereby regulating METABOLISM and CALCIUM level in blood, respectively.
