  • Title: Ultrastructural localization of acid phosphatase in germ cells of chick embryo left ovary.
    Author: Civinini A, Mastrolia L.
    Journal: Exp Cell Biol; 1986; 54(2):94-105. PubMed ID: 3754824.
    Abstract:
    The ultracytochemical localization of acid phosphatase was studied in oogonia and oocytes of the chick embryo left ovary. The reaction products are evident in lysosomes of various types and, in some cells, in the GERL as well. Furthermore, from the onset of the meiotic prophase, the enzymatic reaction also appears in the rough endoplasmic reticulum. Non-incubated sections of the same stages were observed, with the aim of identifying and describing the structure of the organelles, in particular lysosomes which appeared positive in incubated sections. The significance of the presence of the enzyme is discussed.
