Abstract

A nidus of supraependymal cells was located within the infundibular recess of a rat's third ventricle. Upon transmission electron microscopic analysis, these cells were clearly identified as neurons. Neuronal processes, as well as end‐terminals that contained dense‐core and clear synaptic‐like vesicles, were also observed coursing around these cells. It is suggested that some of the supraependymal cells that have been observed in previous scanning electron microscopic studies could be neurons similar to those described here.
