    Notes: Neonatal and adult rat ventricular cardiac muscle cells cultured on laininin differed from similar myocytes grown on plastic in the amount and distribution of their mitochondria and transverse tubules. Point-count morphometry was used at the electron microscopic level to quantify these differences. Adult myocytes grown on laminin contained more mitochondria per unit volume than adult myocytes grown on plastic. No significant differences were observed in the volume percent of myofibrils in either adult or neonatal ventricular myocytes when grown on laminin and compared to those grown on plastic. The transverse tubule system in neonatal and adult myocytes was reduced significantly when both groups were cultured on laminin. Furthermore, neonatal and adult myocytes cultured on laminin were flatter than those cultured on plastic. This may indicate a relationship between the surface/volume ratio and transverse tubule development in cultured myocytes. These studies establish that point-count morphometry can be used to quantify changes in the organelle volume densities of cultured cardiac muscle cells.

    Notes: A technique for performing light, scanning, and transverse transmission electron microscopy on cultured cells grown within a single tissue culture flask is described. Permanent light microscopy slides are obtained by removing selected portions of the plastic tissue culture vessel and mounting them on glass slides with an aqueous mounting solution. The images obtained from these slides are superior to viewing through the bottom of the flask with an inverted stage microscope. For scanning electron microscopy, selected areas are also cut from the remainder of the vessel and prepared for viewing. The final portion of the culture container is transferred and attached to a new tissue culture vessel and prepared for transmission electron microscopy using alcohol instead of acetone and propylene oxide during dehydration, infiltration, and embedding.
