Popis: | Keratin distribution in the cochlea has been studied immuno–electron microscopically by both pre-embedding and postembedding methods. Keratin immunoreactivity in the guinea pig cochlea was clearly demonstrated in Hensen's cells, the reticular lamina surrounding both outer and inner hair cells, outer and inner pillar cells, Claudius' cells, inner and external sulcus cells, interdental cells of the spiral limbus, Reissner's membrane, border cells, inner phalangeal cells, Deiters' cells, and spiral prominence cells. Keratin expression at the ultrastructural level showed a nonfilamentous keratin system in the cytoplasm of cochlear supporting cells. |
