[The structural and functional properties of light and dark mouse hepatocytes]

The morphofunctional analysis of the light and dark hepatocytes of mouse C3HA line has shown that the dark cells have increased electronic density of hyaloplasm in contrast to the light ones. The light hepatocytes predominate among tetra- and octaploid cells. Both cell types are able to incorporate [3H] uridine and [3H] thymidine. Mitosis are met among the light hepatocytes only.
