Abstract:Macrophages and Pigment Cells in the Liver of Pelophylax ridibundus (Anura). Akulenko, N. M.-The morphological features of pigment-containing cells and phagocytic cells were observed on the smears of the liver of the lake frogs. Based on an analysis of more than 1500 cells, it was concluded that cells that have pigment granules in the cytoplasm do not have phagocytic inclusions. On the other hand, phagocytic cells can have pigment inclusions only in the composition of phagocytic vacuoles. Thus, in this organ p… Show more
The article examines the factors inuencing hematopoiesis in the liver of green frogs under conditions of anthropogenic pollution. For this, the
experiment compared the indicators of animals from groups with maximum and minimum signs of the liver damage taken from a contaminated
biotope. It has been shown that there are no differences between the groups in the indices of hematoposis, but there are signicant differences in the
content of pigments in the liver. Also, signicant correlations were found between the amount of pigments and indicators of erythropoiesis and
myelopoiesis. It was concluded that the reserves of pigments in the liver of frogs are involved in compensatory reactions.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
