| Popis: | Neuroendocrine cells in the lungs of three species of anurans, Bombina variegata, Bufo bufo and Bu. viridis, occur both as single cells and in the form of neuroepithelial bodies. Neuroendocrine cells are covered by ciliated cells or pneumocytes, which separate them from the lumen of the lung. Neuroepithelial bodies are dispersed in the apical part of the main septa of lungs of Bo. variegata and Bu. bufo or are situated on special protrusions of septa in the lungs of Bu. viridis. Neuroepithelial bodies are innervated by intraepithelial nerve endings of afferent and efferent types. |
