ABSTRACT

 

Charmi A, Bahmani M, Parto P, Sajjadi MM, Kazemi R., Histology of adrenocortical-medullary homolog of sturgeon fish Huso huso and Acipenser persicus, Onl J Vet Res.,  17 (11):655-668, 2013.  The histology of adrenals in juvenile Huso huso and Acipenser persicus is described in microphotographs. Head, body and caudal kidney tissue samples containing adrenal homolog glands were removed under anaesthesia. Yellow corpuscles were isolated and fixed for microscopy. The adrenal homolog appeared as an indistinct organ covered by a connective tissue sheath. In both species chromaffin and interrenal cells appeared intermingled not separated from each other. Inter-renal cells and their nuclei appeared rounded with an eosinophylic cytoplasm. The chromaffin nucleus appeared round or elongated. In H. huso inter-renal and chromaffin cells were single whereas in A. persicus appeared distributed as irregular shaped cell clumps. Other histological features are described.
