Oxyphil cells vs chief cells
The parathyroid contains two major types of cell: the chief cell & the oxyphil cell. Oxyphil cells are smaller in population but larger in size. Their location are indicated by arrow on the top. They occur singly (arrow in the middle) or cluster together (arrow on the bottom).
28
Chief cells (aka principal cells) and oxyphil cells
The parenchyma of the parathyroid gland consists of two types of cells, chief cells (CC), also known as principal cells, and oxyphil cells (OC). Chief cells are more numerous and possess darker staining cytoplasm. They form small cords surrounded by slender connective tissue (CT) elements and blood vessels (BV). The nuclei (N) of connective tissue cell has an elongated appearance. Oxyphil cells stain lighter and are usually larger in size and their cell membranes are evident.

Pituitary gland, hypophysis, B&W
30
Pituitary gland, hypothalamus, pars tuberalis, pars anterior, pars nervosa, pars intermedia
This photomicrograph of the pituitary gland demonstrated the relationship of
the gland to the hypothalamus (H) from which it is suspended by the infundibulum. The infundibulum is composed of a neural portion, the infundibular stem (IS) and the sourounding pars tuberalis (PT). The largest portion of the pituitary is the pars anterior (PA), which is glandular and secretes numerous hormones. The neural component of the pituitary gland is the pars nervosa (PN) that does not manu- facture its hormones, but stores and release them. Between the pars anterior
and pars nervosa is pars intermedia (PI).
31
Pituitary gland, anterior adenohypophysis, posterior neurohypophysis, pars distalis, pars intermedia, pars nervosa
The pituitary contains two general regions: the anterior adenohypophysis (A) and the posterior neurohypophysis (N). The adenohypophysis consists
of secretory cells and their blood supply. the neurohypophysis contains axons from the paraventricular and supraoptic nuclei of the hypothalamus, their supporting cells and blood vessels. the adenophypophysis is sub- divided into pars distalis (at A) and the pars intermedia (I).
In bottom image, the neural characteristics of the pars nervosa ( C ) of the neurohypophysis become more evident. The pars distalis (A) is glandular
in structure and the pars intermedia (B) contains collidal cysts.
32
Herring bodies
The posterior pituitary stores and secretes ADH (Vasopressin) and Oxytocin. They are synthesized by the nerve cell bodies in the hypothalamic nuclei and are transported down the axons of the hypothalamo-hypophyseal tract. The terminal regions of the axons are dilated and contain secretory granules filled with hormone. These expanded portions of the axons are known as Herring bodies (arrowhead).
33
pars intermedia, basophils, colloid-filled follicles
Situated between the pars anterior (PA) and the pars nervosa (PN) the pars intermedia of the pituitary gland is characterized by basophils (B) that are smaller than those of the pars anterior.
It also contains collid (Cl)-filled follicles, lined by pale, small, low cuboidal-shaped cells (CC). Numerous blood vessels (BV) and pituicytes (P) are evident in this area of the pars nervosa.
34
Pituitary gland - pars nervosa
The pars nervosa of the pituitary gland is composed of elongated cells with long processes known as pituicytes (P) that are thought to be neuroglial in nature. These cells appear to support numerous unmyelinated nerve fibres traveling from the hypothalamus via the hypothalamo-hypothyseal tract. Neurosecretory materials
pass along these nerve fibres and are stored in expanded regions at the termination
of the fibres, which are known as Herring bodies (HB).

Spermatids - acrosomal vesicle, membrane bound granules
Briefly, the major steps of spermiogenesis include the formation of an acrosomal vesicle (Ac) through the elaboration of membrane bound granules (Gr) from the Golgi complex (G) of the spermatids, the development of a flagellum, changes in the size and shape of the nucleus (N) and the further conden- sation of chromatin, and the loss of residual cytoplasm around the head of the spermatozoa. In the spermatid cytoplasm shown here are microtubules (Mt), mitochondria (M) and area of rough endo- plasmic reticulum (ER).

108
Proliferating endometrium - B & W
glands are straight, stroma is highly cellular
109
Proliferative endometrium - myometrium M, tratum basalis B, stratum spongiosum S and stratum compactum C.
Micrograph (a) illustrates early proliferative endometrium at low magnification.
At the bottom of the field is the muscular wall, the myometrium M. The relatively thin endometrium consists of the stratum basalis B, stratum spongiosum S and stratum compactum C. The glands at this stage are fairly sparse and straight. As the gland, stroma and vessels proliferate, the endometrium gradually becomes thicker. By day 5-6 of the cycle the surface epithelium has regenerated. During the proliferative phase the epithelial cells acquire microvilli and cilia as well as the cytoplasmic organelles required for the secretory phase.
110
Proliferative endometrium - endometrial glands G, Mitotic figures M
At higher magnification in micrograph (b), the straight tubular form of the endometrial glands G can be seen. At very high magnification in micrograph (c), the proliferating glandular epithelium is seen to consist of columnar cells with basally located nuclei exhibiting prominent nucleoli. Mitotic figures M can be seen both in the epithelium and in the stroma. Note the highly cellular stroma, almost devoid of collagen fibre.
111
Proliferative endometrium - stratum functionalis F, stratum basalis B, mitotic figures M
By the late proliferative stage, shown at low magnification in micrograph (d), the endometrium has doubled in thickness. Note that in contrast to the stratum functionalis F, the appearance of the stratum basalis B is little changed when compared with the early proliferative phase. With further magnification, micrograph (e) shows that the tubular glands are now becoming coiled and more closely packed. At very high magnification in micrograph (f), mitotic figures M are more prevalent in both the glandular epithelium and the supporting stroma. The stroma is also somewhat oedematous at this stage. During the proliferative phase there is a continuum of change which makes the precise dating of the cycle inaccurate in histological specimens. Lymphocytes and occasional lymphoid aggregates are a normal feature of late proliferative phase endometrium.
112
Uterine cervix - endocervical canal (EC), vagina (V), junction (J)
The uterine cervix protrudes into the upper vagina and contains the endocervical canal linking the uterine cavity with the vagina. The function of the cervix is to admit spermatozoa to the genital tract at the time when fertilization is possible, i.e. around the time of ovulation, but at other times, including pregnancy, its function is to protect the uterus and upper tract from bacterial invasion. In addition, the cervix must be capable of great dilatation to permit the passage of the fetus during parturition.
As seen in this micrograph, the endocervical canal (EC) is lined by a single layer of tall columnar mucus-secreting cells. Where the cervix is exposed to the more hostile environment of the vagina (V), the ectocervix, it is lined by thick stratified squamous epithelium as in the rest of the vagina. The cells of the ectocervix often have clear cytoplasm due to their high glycogen content (not apparent in this specimen). The junction (J) between the vaginal and endocervical epithelium is quite abrupt and is normally located at the external os, the point as which the endocervical canal opens into the vagina.
The main bulk of the cervix is composed of tough, collagenous tissue containing relatively little smooth muscle. Beneath the squamocolumnar junction, the cervical stroma is often infiltrated with leucocytes forming part of the defense against ingress of microorganisms.

Pars optica of the Retina
The pars optica of the retina is composed of 10 distinct layers. The pigment epithelium (1), the outermost layer, is closely apposed to the vascular and pigmented choroid (Ch). Various regions of the rods (R) and cones (C) form the next four layers. These are the lamina rods and cones (2), external limiting membrane (3), outer nucleus layer (4), and outer plexiform layer (5). The inner nuclear layer (6) houses the cell bodies of various associative glial (Muller) and functional cells. the inner plexiform layer (7) is a region of synapse formation, while the ganglion cell layer (8) houses the cell bodies of multipolar neurons and neuroglia. Fibres of these ganglion cells form the optic nerve fibre layer (9), while the inner limiting membrane (10) is composed of the expanded processes of Muller cells.
