Abstract


The article contains analysis of morphological and functional features of newborn piglets adrenal cells during culturing. It was shown that the newborn piglets adrenal cell culture consists of monolayer of fibroblast-like cells and spherical cell structures (cytospheres). It was demonstrated that the number of 3-β-HSD+ cells decreased gradually. The migration of neuron-like cells from the cytospheres after their reseeding was also shown.
