Fig. 5. Electron micrographs of type B cells from rat Harderian gland (HG). (A) Type B cells from euthyroid rat HG are characterised by cytoplasmic electron-translucent vacuoles and a basal nucleus (N). Numerous mitochondria (arrows) are observed throughout the cytoplasm. (B) Type B cells from hypothyroid rat HG have a dark nucleus (N) with peripheral condensation of chromatin and a few cytoplasmic vacuoles. Loose smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER), as well as numerous mitochondria (arrows), can be observed throughout the cytoplasm. Scale bars, 5.4 µm.
