In the pituitary gland of some species of the Egyptian bats there were several similarities and differences between the external shape and the distribution pattern of the anterior cells, but these data were insufficient, because we don’t known what about with other species, so the present study was carried out new insectivorous species Rhinopoma hardwickei in order to elucidate the similarities and the differences. The results indicate that, the gland is irregular in shape and two types of cells appeared by the semi thin sections. The acidophilic and the basophilic cells distributed heterogeneous in the body of the gland. (STH) Somatotropin Hormones are most numerous, the nucleus is irregular and eccentric with endoplasmic reticulum. The secretary granules are large with dense granules. Luteotropic Hormone (LTH): The nucleus is eccentrically near the plasma membrane, the mitocho.. View More»
