Summary

Two types of cilia occur in golden hamster and hedgehog pituitary cells: one (9 + 0 pattern) is obseryed in secretory cells, the other (9 + 2 pattern) is found in colloid bordering cells. Distribution and functional significance of the two types of cilia are discussed in reference to the literature.

Résumé

Deux types de cils sont décrits dans les cellules de l'antéhypophyse du Hamster doré et du Hérisson: l'un de ces types est défini par la formule 9 + 0 et s'observe dans les cellules glandulaires sécrétrices; l'autre type est caractérisé par la formule 9 + 2 et se localise dans les cellules bordantes des plages colloïdales. En fonction des données bibliographiques, la répartition et la signification fonctionnelle des deux types de cils sont discutées.
