Abstract
Somatostatin-containing cells have been demonstrated by immunocytochemistry in semithin sections of the pancreatic islet of the teleost fish, Xiphophorus helleri. These cells were shown by correlative light and electron microscopy to be identical with D cells previously defined in this species by the silver impregnation method of Hellman and Hellerström. L'étude en immunofluorescence de tissu fixé et inclus pour la microscopic électronique a démontré l'existence de somatostatine dans le pancréas endocrine du téléostéen Xiphophorus helleri. L'observation comparée de coupes sériées ultrafines et sémifines a permis d'établir l'identité entre les cellules positives et les cellules qui avaient été précédemment définies comme cellules D, en utilisant l'imprégnation argentique de Hellman et Hellerström.Keywords
