The morphology and occurrence of tubuloreticular and undulating membraneous structures (TRS and UMS) associated with the endoplasmic reticulum were examined under normal and pathologic conditions. It was concluded that TRS and UMS are cytoplasmic inclusions of similar type but of different organization. The occurrence of UMS in a human cell line derived from a carcinoma of the lung and in a transplantable chicken hepatoma derived from an MC-29 virus-induced liver tumour is described.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
