The ultrastructure of the luminal epithelium of the hedgehog uterus is described on the basis of material taken from 11 animals in three different hormonal situations: castrated, active and hibernating animals. The whole uterine epithelium is composed of microvillous cells. Its appearance is very similar in ovariectomized and hibernating animals. It differs from that observed in active animals where the epithelium is taller, microvilli are more numerous and longer, and where nuclei and cytoplasm display a very active ultrastructural appearance. The results now available indicate that ultrastructural changes occurring within the cells are certainly correlated with plasma sex steroid hormone concentrations. The present paper also reports the regular occurrence of nuclear bodies in uterine cells. |
