  • Title: Morphology and distribution of calcitonin cells in the house shrew, Suncus murinus.
    Author: Srivastav AK, Swarup K.
    Journal: Arch Anat Microsc Morphol Exp; 1982; 71(4):207-12. PubMed ID: 7168575.
    Abstract:
    The thyroparathyroid complex of house shrews was cut into serial sections. For demonstration of calcitonin cells (C cells) the sections were stained by HE, PAS/haematoxylin, Heidenhain's iron haematoxylin, Mallory's aniline blue, toluidine blue, Davenport's silver impregnation and lead haematoxylin. The C cells are oval to slender in shape and are distributed unevenly (totally lacking from the peripheral, cranial, caudal and isthmus region). They are also encountered in the internal parathyroid gland.
