title: Ultrastructural changes accompanying the induced differentiation of clonal rat nerve and glia.
abstract: Dibutyryladenosine 3'-5' monophosphate (DBcAMP) induces ultrastructural transformations in clonal rat nerve and glia. Cells cultured in the presence of DBcAMP contain large numbers of aligned microtubules and microfilaments in their elongated processes, while control cultures without DBcAMP are relatively devoid of these structures. In addition, the cells exposed to DBcAMP contain 2000 A to 6000 A vesicles which are not observed in control cells.
