Abstract
Lamellated nerve endings in the cheek mucosa of fifteen adult Sprague-Dawley rats were studied with light and electron microscopes. Serial sections revealed that the terminal axon of the lamellated nerve endings is in the central portion, and that the inner core is made up of two stacks of lamellae. These are characterized by many corpuscles located within a single papilla, which shows structural specializations at several levels. Electron microscopy showed that the corpuscles are circular in shape and that the lamellar sheets possess a rich rough endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria and numerous glycogen-like granules. Numerous bundles of collagen fibers and an amorphous substance are located in the interlamellar spaces. The axon terminal is characterized by the presence of neurofilaments, neurotubules and mitochondria. The capsule consists of several laminae formed by cytoplasmic extensions of perineural cells presenting many caveolae, mitochondria, rough endoplasmic reticulum profiles and microfilaments.
