Lattice and rodlet nuclear inclusions in Merkel cells in rabbit epidermis.

A latticee or rodlet inclusion is occasionally observed in the nucleus of a Merkel cell. The lattice has the external form of a plaque or band and internally consists of alternating parallel wide and narrow layers. Filaments in wide layers run in at least two directions across the short dimension of the inclusion.

Inheritance of hair constrictions in mice.

The frequencies of multi-constricted hairs in the pelage is the same (75%) in the caudal mid-dorsum of C57BL/10 and CBA inbred mice, but there are more single-constricted hairs in C57BL mice (9.41%) than in CBA mice (0.13%).
