Forming neuroendocrine apparatus of lung in ontogenesis

Abstract

Aim of the research is to show the developing legitimacy APUD-system of lungs in pre and post ontogenesis. Condition of neuroendocrine apparatus of lungs on rabbits was studied during the fetal embryogenesis of inner development and after 1-180 days of the birth. Duration of the research on rabbits was chosen according to their changing afterbirth features as physiological function of organism; was selected the periods of newborn stage, enlightenment, complication of locomotion, pre-pubertal and pubertal. Materials were fixed by immersion in liquid of Buena. After suitable wiring, the material was flooded in paraffin. Histologic shears were colored hematoxylin and eosin, stain of Van –Gieson, resorcinol-fuchsinol of Veingeirt. For detecting endocrine cells of shear impregnated by the method of Gremeluise. Luminescent histochemical research was done with the help of V.N. Shvalyova and N.N. Juchkova method with applying glyoxylic acid on fresh-iced shears. For defining, the amount of fluorescent monoamine (serotonin and catecholamine) was used microfluorimetry. However, the intensification of histogenetic processes occurring in the organ after birth due to the expansion of physiological functions is accompanied by an increase in the number of apudocytes and NET. The content of catecholamines and serotonin in neuroendocrine structures depends on the period of growth and differentiation of the lung: during the intensive growth of the respiratory organs in the fetal period and in newborns, the level of catecholamines in apudocytes and NET is increased; with the predominance of differentiation processes in the neuroendocrine apparatus, the serotonin content increases.
