  • Title: Cytology of the hypophysis, pars anterior of the Indian five-striped palm squirrel, Funambulus pennanti (Wroughton).
    Author: Bhiwgade DA, Gulhane LT.
    Journal: Z Mikrosk Anat Forsch; 1980; 94(6):1121-40. PubMed ID: 6169215.
    Abstract:
    By employing various staining techniques the pituitary cells of the squirrels, Funambulus pennanti, can broadly be divided into 'acidophilic', 'basophilic' and 'amphophilic' types. The acidophilic cell types include somatotrophs and lactotrophs. The basophilic cell types include thyrotrophs, folliculotrophs and interstitiotrophs while the amphophilic cells are recognized as corticotrophs. The identification of the pituitary cells and their histochemical characteristics are described at the light microscopical level. Attempt has been made to interpret the cells identified in the present study on a comparative and tinctorial basis.
