Histological and histochemical study on the development of foliate papillae in guinea pigs

Abstract
The present work was carried out to study the development of foliate papillae in guinea pigs and the associated changes in the activity of true chohnesterase enzyme. Histological and histochemical differentiation were found to start in the early intrauterine life and were completed before birth. The activity for the true chohnesterase enzyme was detected as early as the 22nd day of gestation while histological differentiation started 2–3 days later. The findings obtained and their possible significance were discussed.
