  • Title: Ultrastructural characteristics of the cranial dura mater-arachnoid interface layer.
    Author: Angelov DN.
    Journal: Z Mikrosk Anat Forsch; 1990; 104(6):982-90. PubMed ID: 2096539.
    Abstract:
    The ultrastructural features of the encephalic dura mater-arachnoid borderline (interface) layer (zone) of rats, rabbits, cats and humans were studied. The rat's interface zone included the electron-lucent epithelium-like arranged fibroblasts of the inner dural layer, the rich in filaments cells of the dural neurothelium, a 20 nm wide intercellular cleft filled with electron-dense material and the dark mitochondria-rich cells of the outer arachnoidal layer; in rabbits and cats, this laminar distinction was less prominent, while in man, it was almost absent.
