[Structural identity of the multinuclear chondro- and osteoclasts in developing bone].
Distributional peculiarities and the ultrastructure of multinuclear elastic cells have been studied in the developed thighbone of rat and rabbit fetuses and new-borns. Multinuclear chondro- and osteoclasts exhibit no noticeable structural specificity with respect to the resorption substrate and are considered to be one and the same type of clastic cells whose main function is to resorb the mineralized tissue.
