The characteristics of intrinsic muscle fibers in the anterior third of the adult rat tongue were studied employing light microscopy, SEM and high-resolution SEM (HRSEM) methods. For light microscopy, specimens were fixed in Bouin's solution and embedded in paraffin. In order to identify the muscle fibers and bundles of collagen fibers, frontal sections were stained with hematoxylin-eosin, azo-carmin and picro-sirius. The results showed that muscle fibers near the lamina propria are fixed with connective tissue, constituting several groups. The bundles of muscle fibers are arranged in longitudinal, vertical and transversal directions. For SEM, specimens were fixed in modified Karnovsky solution and freeze-fractured in liquid nitrogen revealed the collagen... |

The morphological characteristics of the hooves of two groups of horses were studied. The first group was comprised of six adult animals without any treatment and served as the control. The other group, comprised of seven horses, received carbohydrates overload orally. Of these, 71% developed laminitis between 36 and 48 hours after carbohydrate administration. After 48 hours of induction, the animals were sacrificed and their fore limbs and hindlimbs were removed for histologic study. Tissue sections 5 to 7 µm thick were obtained, stained with hematoxylin-eosin (H&E) or periodic acid Schiff's (PAS), and then examined by light microscopy. It was possible to identify in horses from the laminitis group, morphological and structural changes in the... |
