[Regional characteristics of the organization of the aortic endothelium (a quantitative analysis)].
By means of SEM-analysis in 110 microphotos (from 14 aortas of white rats) with the aim to estimate heteromorphism of the thoracic part endothelium, quantitative characteristics of endotheliocytes have been studied in the ventral and dorsal surfaces, and also around the ostia of the intercostal arteries. For the quantitative analysis organization of the lines of the interendotheliocyte borders is taken into account. Endotheliocytes around the ostium are more elongated but occupy less area and have less straight contours in comparison with cells in other regions; they have also greater variability. Essential differences in arranging the endothelial cells into the layer on the ventral and dorsal surfaces of the aorta are revealed.
