Studies on the dense-core vesicles in the ontogenesis of locus coeruleus. III. Statistical reconstruction of the diameter distribution of the dense-core vesicles in locus coeruleus during rat ontogenesis. 1979

I Lolova, and N Lolov, and J Sievers

The method for statistical reconstruction of the diameters of dence-core vesicles, described in the previous work, is applied for studying the changes of these vesicles in the perikarya, the axonal boutons and the neuropile of the rat locus coeruleus during ontogenesis. The data obtained show the presence of the population during the embryonal development and of two populations of dense-core vesicles after birth in the structures studied. This finding is interpreted in connection with the different function of the dense-core vesicles and of the transmitters, respectively, in the development and function of the main noradrenergic nucleus in the brain of mammals -- locus coeruleus.

D009940	Organoids	An organization of cells into an organ-like structure. Organoids can be generated in culture, e.g., self-organized three-dimensional tissue structures derived from STEM CELLS (see MICROPHYSIOLOGICAL SYSTEMS). They are also found in certain NEOPLASMS.	Organoid
D000367	Age Factors	Age as a constituent element or influence contributing to the production of a result. It may be applicable to the cause or the effect of a circumstance. It is used with human or animal concepts but should be differentiated from AGING, a physiological process, and TIME FACTORS which refers only to the passage of time.

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.
