Crystalloid structure in adrenocortical adenoma. 1985

M Kitazawa, and H Kaneko, and M Toshima, and H Ishikawa, and H Watanabe, and A Takagi, and Z W Ming

The presence of crystalloid structures was demonstrated in the cytoplasm of a huge adrenocortical adenoma ultrastructurally. The crystalloids were classified into four types, and they differed from those of spironolactone bodies or intramitochondrial bodies in their size and shape. The structures of the crystalloids resembled the crystalloids of Reinke in the Leydig cells of the testis. Reports on intracytoplasmic crystalloids are rare in the tumors of the adrenal cortex.

D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D008928 Mitochondria Semiautonomous, self-reproducing organelles that occur in the cytoplasm of all cells of most, but not all, eukaryotes. Each mitochondrion is surrounded by a double limiting membrane. The inner membrane is highly invaginated, and its projections are called cristae. Mitochondria are the sites of the reactions of oxidative phosphorylation, which result in the formation of ATP. They contain distinctive RIBOSOMES, transfer RNAs (RNA, TRANSFER); AMINO ACYL T RNA SYNTHETASES; and elongation and termination factors. Mitochondria depend upon genes within the nucleus of the cells in which they reside for many essential messenger RNAs (RNA, MESSENGER). Mitochondria are believed to have arisen from aerobic bacteria that established a symbiotic relationship with primitive protoeukaryotes.
