Summary

Coated vesicles were demonstrated in various cell types in the region of the neuro-muscular junctions of the mouse diaphragm fixed with osmium tetroxide. These vesicles are characterized by a membrane which is specially differentiated. The occurrence, fine structure, and formation of these coated vesicles are described; their possible function and the nature of the coat are discussed in the light of existing literature.

Zusammenfassung

In den verschiedenen Zellarten im Gebiet der neuro-muskulären Synapsen des mit OsO4 fixierten Maus-Diaphragmas werden Mikropinozytose-Vesikel dargestellt, die durch eine besondere Membrandifferenzierung ausgezeichnet sind. Vorkommen, Feinstruktur und Entstehung dieser “coated vesicles” werden beschrieben. Ihre mögliche Funktion sowie die Bedeutung des Saumes werden in Zusammenhang mit der bereits vorliegenden Literatur diskutiert.
