“…Intramitochondrial nucleic acid syntheses, both DNA and RNA, in mammalian and avian cells were first demonstrated morphologically by the present author by means of electron microscopic (EM) radioautography, with accurate localization in primary cultured cells of the livers and kidneys of mice and chickens in vitro [1,2] and then in some other established cell lines, such as HeLa cells [3,4,5,6] or mitochondrial fractions prepared from in vivo cells [7,8,9]. They were later commonly found in various cells and tissues not only in vitro obtained from various organs in vivo [10,11,12,13,14], but also in vivo cells of various organs such as the salivary gland [15], liver [16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29], pancreas [30,31], trachea [32], lung [33], kidney [34], testis [35,36], uterus [37,38], adrenal gland [39,40,41], brain [42], and retina [43,44,…”
