Abstract

|
|
This experiment was performed in order to study the morphological changes of the argentaffin and argyrophile cells in the gastrointestinal mucosae of Rana nigromaclata during development. The specimens from the stomach and the small intestine at different developmental stages were fixed in neutral 10% formalin, sectioned at a thickness of 3 microns, and impregnated by Masson's method for argentaffin cells and by Bodian's method for argyrophile cells. The results of observation were as follows: 1. In the stomach, the argentaffin cells appeared at XIII stage of metamorphosis and the argyrophile cells at X stage and they rapidly increased in number at XXV stage. 2. In the small intestine, the argentaffin cells appeared at XXV stage of metamorphosis and the argyrophile cells at XVII stage and they rapidly increased in number at XXV stage. 3. The argentaffin and argyrophile cells in the gastrointestinal mucosae, appeared prior to forming gastrointestinal mucosal fold following to development of muscle layer. 4. The rapid numeral increase of the argentaffin and argyrophile cells in the last stage of metamorphosis would be due to ecological changes and differentiations of gastrointestinal mucoae in amphilbia.
