  • Title: Histomorphometric analysis of the reticulum of the sheep during development.
    Author: Franco A, Robina A, Regodón S, Vivo JM, Masot AJ, Redondo E.
    Journal: Histol Histopathol; 1993 Jul; 8(3):547-56. PubMed ID: 8358164.
    Abstract:
    Histomorphometric and scanning electron microscopic analysis were performed on 74 embryos and foetuses and on 20 sheep (early post-natal to adult age). Histodifferentiation of the reticulum took place at 33 days of foetal life. Reticular ribs were observed as evaginations of the epithelial stratum germinativum at 64 days. Neutral mucopolysaccharides first appeared in epithelial cells at 46 foetal days, thereafter to decrease gradually in number, subsequently stabilising in postnatal life. Acid mucopolysaccharides, mucins and mucoid compounds were not detected. Growth curves and formulae were constructed for each tissue layer. Initial test involved multiplicative (y = axb), linear (y = a+bx) and polynomial model (y = a+b+cx2+dx3).
