Abstract

A morphometric model, which provides information on the structure of the normal gland (ventral lobe) has been developed for the rat prostate. The model consists of morphologically defined space and membrane compartments, which are used to describe the specific components of the protein and enzyme synthesizing and secreting glandular cells. The results presented are relative to a cubic centimeter of prostatic tissue, a cubic centimeter of acinar parenchyma and glandular cell cytoplasm. Special interest was given to the cell compartments which are involved in protein and enzyme synthesis.
