摘要:: Small granule chromaffin cells (SGC cells) were identified in the adrenal medulla of adult dogs. They were small in size and usually showed a high nucleo-cytoplasmic ratio. Cytoplasmic projections were occasionally observed in some of these cells. They contained a variable number of small secretory granules with diameters ranging from 70 to 300 nm, but mostly from 100 to 200 nm. The densities of the secretory granules were variable, ranging from highly dense to less dense. These adrenal SGC cells were rich in free ribosomes and polysomes, but were relatively poor in other cell organelles. Chromaffin cells which were intermediate in their characteristics (IM cells) between the SGC cells and the typical A and N cells were also identified. These IM cells contained both highly electron dense and less dense granules in various proportions. The IM cells were classified into two subgroups, according to the proportions of adrenaline type granules and noradrenaline type granules. One group resembled A cells (IM-A cells) and the other resembled N cells (IM-N cells). Light microscopic histochemical studies of A cells stained with the ammoniacal silver solution demonstrated that they contained a small number of darkly stained granules. Electron microscopic cytochemistry revealed that the electron dense granuls in the SGC cells, IM cells and A cells reacted positively with both the potassium dichromate solution at pH 4.1 and the ammoniacal silver solution.
