title: Satellite cells in the normal human adrenal gland and in pheochromocytomas. An immunohistochemical study.
abstract: In light of the recent finding of the S-100 antigen in satellite cells of the rat adrenal medulla, we looked for S-100-labelled cells in both the normal human adrenal medulla and in pheochromocytomas. Immunostaining enabled us to detect S-100-labelled satellite cells by both light and electron microscopy in a significant number of pheochromocytomas and, as expected, in the normal human adrenal medulla.
