Abstract: | The pattern of alpha-naphthyl-acetate esterase (ANAE) activity in stromal and lymphatic cells has been examined in lymphatic organs from normal and hydrocortisone (HC)-treated mice. The distribution of ANAE-positive lymphocytes as well as stromal cells in peripheral lymphatic organs was different in T- and B-dependent regions, while in the thymus there was the difference between cortex and medulla. The HC application evoked a marked changes in the pattern of ANAE-positive cells distribution of the thymus, producing only a slight ones in the remaining organs. The influence of HC on the ANAE reaction intensity and distribution in the examined tissue sections is discussed. |
