An electron microscopy immunocytochemical study was performed to determine the expression pattern of growth hormone (GH) in mosaic mutant mice adenohypophysis. In normal condition GH was restricted to the secretory granules of all growth hormone cells. Mosaic mice adenohypophysis contained growth hormone cells which have distinctive GH labeled secretory granules at the level seen in control animals. Ultrastructurally, some GH cells of mosaic mice presented abnormalities, but labeling intensity of secretory granules in these cells was always comparable to the basal condition. The striking findings presence of two forms (simple and activated) of folliculo-stellate cells (FS) in close association trough gap or tight junction with GH cells localized especially near the perivascular space. Frequently, in cytoplasm of FS cells, large clusters containing fragments of GH labeled cell were present. Additionally, the existence of large intracellular, electron-lucent spaces, with remnant cellular material in parenchyma of mosaic mutant mice adenohypophysis could suggest intensive process of GH-cell destruction. Our electron microscopy immunocytochemical results provide evidence for loss of GH cells in mosaic mice by phagocytosis. We suppose that impaired body growth observed in mosaic mutant male rats may be, at least partially, a consequence of an alteration in somatotropic axis activity. Loss of GH cells in mosaic mice by phagocytosis supported by FS cells may contribute to this effect.
