Adrenal Histology - Medulla
Adrenal gland, monkey - (Stain - Haematoxylin Eosin)
- cells arranged in strands or small clusters with capillaries and venules in the intervening spaces.
- cell cytoplasm weakly basophilic.
- chromaffin cells because granules can be stained with potassium bichromate.
- innervated by preganglionic sympathetic fibres.
Two indistinguishable cell types (neural crest in origin):
- Adrenaline producing cells - epinephrine (80%)
- Noradrenaline producing cells - norepinephrine (20%)
