Influence of ethionine on the ultrastructural morphology of the porcine hepatocyte.

In the present study the morphological alterations induced by ethionine poisoning in the porcine liver were examined by electron microscopy. It was found that the most prominent ultrastructural changes were: accumulation of fat drops in the cytoplasm, disappearance of polysomes, fragmentation and vesiculisation of the endoplasmic reticulum, altered glycogen distribution and mitochondrial swelling. These closely resembled the pathological changes found in rat parenchymal cells under the same circumstances. In addition, moreover fat deposits were found in the nucleoplasm. The microbodies showed an altered morphology.

Respiratory adenovirus-like infection in a rose-ringed parakeet (Psittacula krameri).

Intranuclear inclusions were observed under light microscopy in the bronchial epithelial cells of a recently purchased female rose-ringed parakeet that died of chlamydiosis. Transmission electron microscopy revealed the presence of numerous particles of adenovirus morphology. A latent adenovirus infection may have become more severe following chlamydiosis and the stress of handling.
