[Histochemical and immunohistochemical identification of endocrine cells in the internal ear].

The authors describe the results of the study of rabbit decalcified temporal bones and guinea-pig membranous cochlea treated according to the Grimelius argyrophil method and immunohistochemical technique with the use of a number of specific antisera. The study revealed the cells of the diffuse endocrine system (APUD system) in various parts of the internal ear: in the main membrane, receptor elements of the spiral chorda, and spiral ligament. Serotonin and melatonin were identified in the cells of the APUD system. The data obtained may form a theoretical basis of a basically new trend in the study of the function of the internal ear in health and disease.
