The fine structure of Walker 256 carcinoma cells.
Several ultrastructural features of Walker 256 rat tumor cells which have not been observed before are revealed. Nuclear bodies either singlely or in pairs were found in some cells. Cytofilaments were observed in the cytoplasm and cytoplasmic projections in a few cells. Desmosomes which are usually regarded as a feature of differentiated cells were also observed.
