Popis: The distribution of somatostatin cells was investigated immunohistochemically in the epithelium of the abomasal mucous membrane of sheep and goats. Tissue samples were taken from different areas at the lesser and greater curvature of the glandular stomach. More somatostatin cells per 0.5 mm2 were found in sheep than in goats, predominantly in the pyloric gland region. In the pyloric area of both species the mucosa in the greater curvature contained more immunoreactive cells than the one in the lesser curvature. A few somatostatin cells with basal cytoplasmic processes of the ‘open type’ were observed over the entire abomasal mucosa.
