    Notes: Abstract Intraventricular transplants of neural tissues were performed in ovo from embryo to embryo. Fragments of the nervous wall of the optic lobe (tectum) from 14-day chick or 12-day quail embryos (donor) were inserted into the ventricle of the right optic lobe of 6-day chick or 5-day quail embryos (host). Chick-to-chick, chick-to-quail and quail-to-chick grafts were carried out. The vascularization changes occurring in the host tectum and in the grafted neural tissues were analysed under light, transmission, and scanning electron microscopes and by morphometric methods. In the host embryo tectum, the neural graft stimulates a statistically significant increment in vessel density and a vessel sprouting into the ventricle of the optic lobe. The vascular sprouts reach the transplanted tissue and establish connections with its native microvasculature. The chick-to-quail and quail-to chick grafts, submitted to immunoreaction with a quailspecific antibody which recognizes an antigen (MB1) present on endothelial cells, indicate that re-establishment of the circulation in the graft depends upon anastomoses between host and donor vasculatures and the rapid new growth of host-derived and donor-native vessels. The presence of macrophage-like cells escorting the new-growing vessels suggests that these cells are involved in the host and donor tissue angiogenesis.

    Notes: Summary The maturation process of blood vessels has been ultrastructurally investigated in the optic tectum of chick embryos kept in a condition of aerogenic hypoxia and of chickens born from fertilized eggs incubated under hypoxia but kept in the open air after hatching. By comparing the fine structure of the intratectal vessels of chick embryos exposed to hypoxia to that of embryos developed under normal conditions, the conclusion has been drawn that O2 deprivation does not prevent the temporal sequence of appearance and/or differentiation of the various vascular wall components (endothelium, endothelial basement lamina, pericytes, perivascular glia), but it produces, at least in a part of the latter, modifications, the type and degree of which apparently depend upon hypoxia duration.
