| Popis: | Structures identified as subsurface cisterns (SSC's) have been observed in a variety of nerve cells from several different species. The SSC's occurred only in neurons and were most often opposite what appeared to be glial cells. Upon acrolein-glutaraldehyde fixation, they appeared as distinct cytoplasmic organelles consisting of a short 0.5 μ long pentalaminate membrane in close parallel to the neuronal plasmalemma on one side, and parallel to an equally long segment of endoplasmic reticulum on the other side. A direct continuity was found between this segment of endoplasmic reticulum and the nuclear membrane, suggesting that a form of communication may exist between the neuronal nucleus and the subsurface cistern. Occasionally the segment of endoplasmic reticulum was missing and in its place a mitochondrion appeared which seemed to be in direct contact with the pentalaminate membrane. |
