    Notes: Summary The present paper describes a simple, efficient method for silver impregnation of supraoptic nuclei of the rat hypothalamus using a modification of the ammoniacal silver technique of Cajal (1903). This procedure, involving a silver-developer sequence in tissue blocks prior to plastic embedding, permits the simultaneous study of Ag-impregnated supraoptic neurons at both light and electron microscopic levels. Visualization of secretory magnocellular neurons impregnated by this technique using the electron microscope reveals a good preservation of nuclear structures. A selective accumulation of silver grains was observed over heterochromatin clumps and nucleoli, which allows the identification of the nucleolar fibrillar centers and also the dense fibrillar component as the main areas involved in the silver reaction. The meaning of such a silver-distribution pattern is discussed in the light of recent ultrastructural and biochemical data.

    Notes: Summary Ultrastructural study of the hypothalamic ventromedial nucleus during the postnatal period showed the presence of nuclear inclusions in immature glial cells. These inclusions, identified as “coiled bodies”, consist of round-to-oval formations of coiled electron-dense strands embedded in a less dense fibrillar matrix. Coiled bodies are located free within the nucleoplasm, showing no specific relationships with the nucleolus or the nuclear membrane. The cells containing coiled bodies were typified as oligodendrocyte precursors, mainly oligodendroblasts. The coiled bodies were not found in mature glial cells nor in other types of immature glial elements. The nature and possible functional role of coiled bodies are suggested in the light of recent morphological and biochemical data.
