Lipids and cholesterol clefts in the lacunar cells of snake skin.

M K Jackson, M Sharawy.   

Abstract

The lacunar cell layer in rat snake epidermis contains many characteristic intracellular vacuoles. The lipid nature of these large round vacuoles was demonstrated by histochemical and ultrastructural investigations. Rhomboid-shaped clefts, similar to cholesterol ester clefts, were observed in proximity to the vacuoles.
