  • Title: On the development of the lymphoid follicles of the bursa of Fabricius.
    Author: Edwards JL, Murphy RC, Cho Y.
    Journal: Anat Rec; 1975 Apr; 181(4):735-53. PubMed ID: 1119704.
    Abstract:
    The structural features of the development of the bursa of Fabricius in white Leghorn chick embryos are depicted at carefully timed intervals during embryogenesis, with emphasis on the sequence of events between the ninth and twelfth days of incubation. The direction and character of the migration of lymphoid cell precursors and granulocytes from the intravascular space to intraepithelial sites, where the formation of the primitive lymphoepithelial nodule takes place, is demonstrated. The mechanism of the mode of migration of these cells through the stromal epithelial interface is described and illustrated with electron micrographs and their role in the development of the primitive lymphoid follicles is described and discussed.
