摘要:
The ultrastructure of the parathyroid glands of phosphate-treated golden hamsters exposed to a 5-G environment was studied. In the phosphate-treated animals exposed to a hypergravity environment, the Golgi complexes associated with numerous prosecretory granules, and the enlarged intercellular spaces containing floccular or finely particulate material showed a significant increase compared to those of the control, centrifuged, and phosphate-treated groups, and the cisternae of the granular endoplasmic reticulum showed a significant increase compared to those of the control and phosphate-treated groups. In addition, numerous secretory granules were situated close to the plasma membrane of chief cells in the phosphate-treated animals exposed to a hypergravity environment. These findings suggest that the synthesis, and to a greater extent the release of secretory granules may be markedly stimulated, in the parathyroid glands of phosphate-treated animals exposed to a hypergravity environment.
