    Ultrastructural evidence for sinusoid spaces and coupling between pituicytes in the rat (1975)
    Springer
    Cell & tissue research 161 (1975), S. 33-45 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-0878
    Keywords: Neurohypophysis (Rat) ; Pituicytes-Gap and tight junctions ; Zonula occludens ; Freeze-etching electron microscopy
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology , Medicine
    Notes: Summary The pericapillary palisade of the rat neurohypophysis was examined by means of thin-section and freeze-etch electron-microscopy. Special attention was given to pituicyte processes intermingled with neurosecretory terminals. These processes are identified by the presence of lipid droplets and ribosomes. Extracellular spaces are conspicuously enlarged in circumscribed regions between fingerlike protrusions of pituicyte processes. Neurosecretory axons seem to have free access to these enlarged spaces. Zonulae occludentes often combined with small gap junctions are found at the border of these sinusoid spaces. Gap junctions and occasionally intermediate junctions are seen between pituicyte processes. The topographic relationship and the functional significance of these structural features remain to be further elucidated.

    The influence of high pressure freezing on mammalian nerve tissue (1980)
    Springer
    Cell & tissue research 209 (1980), S. 201-216 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-0878
    Keywords: High pressure (2,100 bars) freezing ; Freeze-etching ; Nerve tissue ; Rat

    Topics: Biology , Medicine
    Notes: Summary Vitrification of biological specimens in liquid nitrogen can be achieved under high pressure (2,100 bars). This procedure obviates the use of aldehyde fixation and cryoprotection (glycerol). The present work demonstrates its applicability to the freeze-etching of mammalian brain tissue. Freeze-fracture replicas from rat cerebellar cortex and subfornical organ prepared by this method are compared to conventionally processed material using aldehyde fixation, glycerination and freezing with Freon. The formation of large ice crystals is prevented in tissue blocks up to 0.5 mm thick; deep etching is markedly enhanced. Cytoplasmic microstructures such as mitochondrial cristae, microtubules and microfilaments, are readily observable against a finely granulated cytosol matrix. An additional advantage is the combined application with freeze-substitution.
