Cellular composition of the Corpus luteum of Indian fruit bat, Rousettus leschenaulti (Desmarest) during early embryonic development
並列摘要
The fine structure of luteal cell of the corpus luteum of Indian fruit bat, Rousettus leschenaulti was studied at three stages unilaminar blastocyst stage, Implanted bilaminar blastocyst stage and limb bud stage of early pregnancy. At unilaminar blastocyst stage luteal cells had small nuclei euchromatin. Mitochondria were small, round shaped with tubular cristae. Numerous less osmiophilic lipid droplets were observed in cytoplasmic field of the luteal cells. After implantation at implanted bilaminar blastocyst stage nuclear heterochromatin were reduced and nucleoli were larger and complex. Mitochondria were enlarged and often bizarre shaped with tubular cristae. Golgi complex and agranular endoplasmic reticulum were more conspicuous. Lipid droplets were less osmiophilic. At the stage of limb bud formation the luteal cells suggests different morphological picture, the nuclear size is reduced with clumps of heterochromatin. The agranular endoplasmic reticulum assumes the form of bundles of parallel tubules dispersed in several planes. Mitochondrial size was reduced then the previous stage and they posses vesicular cristae. These observations suggest that the steroidogenic activity of the luteal cells is highest during implantation and comparatively regresses during limb bud formation. It is suggested that the luteal cells is an important ovarian source of pregnancy hormones.
