[Nerve fiber interrelationships with the ependyma of the 3d ventricle in rats in the perinatal period].

The localization and ultrastructure of nerve fibers in the wall and lumen of ventral region of III ventricle was studied from the 16th day of prenatal period till the 9th day of postnatal period in the Wistar rats. The nerve fibers were first found in the subependyme zone; between the ependyme cells and in the lumen of ventricle on the 18th day of development. The nerve fibers occur constantly in the lumen of ventricle beginning from the 3rd day of postnatal period. The dilatations of nerve fibers contain granules of 50 to 90 nm in diameter with the electron-dense center (carriers of monoamines and/or releasing hormonnes) granules with moderately osmiophilic contents and light vesicles of the same size. It is suggested that these structures reflect different stages of the release of neurohormones in the cerebrospinal fluid. The synapse-like contacts of nerve fibers with the ependyme cells are observed beginning from the 3rd day of postnatal period. Their role in the regulation of absorption of substances by the ependyme cells functioning is discussed.
