    Abstract:
    A comparative study was performed of the arrangement of different nucleolar components during differentiation of trophoblast cell populations in the junctional zone of placenta (glycogen cells and trophospongium) and in the secondary giant cells. Each cell type is characterized by specific interrelation of nucleolar components. Some glycogen cells show signs of segregation of nucleolar components: strands of nucleolar components with fibrillar centers (FCs) are displaced to the periphery of the nucleolus and contact with the perinucleolar chromatin. Large reticular nucleoli in trophospongium cells contain many FCs which are gathered into several "chains" by strands of dense fibrillar component. Such a "chain" has also been found in nucleoli of secondary giant cells, with greater number of FCs in each "chain". Relationship between the arrangement of nucleolar components and the level of cell differentiation is discussed.
