title: [Cytoarchitectonics of ileocecal lymph nodes in newborn and sexually mature simians (pavian hamadrils)].
abstract: Cell composition of various components (cortical plateau, folliculi and cords) of ileocecal lymph nodes was studied in newborn, 1.5 and 2.5 months of age (2 animals) and in mature (3 animals) monkeys, Papio hamadryas. In histological sections obtained at the level of hilus of the lymph node cellular elements were counted by means of morphometric grid of Glagolev modifoed by S. B. Stefanov. The data obtained were statistically treated. Newborn and mature monkeys have their peculiar cytological profile in every structural component of the lymph node. The lymph nodes in the newborns contain much more reticular cells and young cellular forms (blast forms and large lymphocytes) than mature animals. In the newborns, the number of mitotically deviding cells in the cortical plateau and in folliculi is 6 times and in myelin cords 10 times as great as in mature monkeys. A much greater per cent of plasmatic cells in mature animals suggests their greater immunological activity. Age differences in cell composition of lymph nodes in young and mature monkeys seem to be connected with accumulation of cellular mass and growth of the node in young animals, as well as with general rearrangement of the organism as a whole (in particular with changes in nutrition, intensity of movement, hormonal background).
