Distribution and age-related changes in somatostatin-immunopositive cell in the small intestinal of African ostrich

摘要：

The present study was performed to investigate the morphology and topographic distribution,developmental changes of Somatostatin-producing cells in the small intestinal of African ostrich chicks at different ages:1 day (birth),45 days,90(days),and 334(control).The results were as follows:somatostatin(SOM) cells were present in the mucosal layer of whole small intestinal of the African ostrich on all checked days.SOM cells had round and spherical shapes (closed-type cells),or Spindle and pyriform shapes (open-type cells).SOM cells were localized preferentially in the duodenum of 90-day-old ostrich.The quantity of SOM-IP cells increased gradually after birth until 90-day and peaked on 90-day in the duodenum,meanwhile it decreased gradually after birth until 90-day and footed on 90-day in the jejunal and ileal regions.These results indicated that SOM might be involved in functional and developmental regulation of small intestinal of African ostrich Chicks.
